The Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) has been given the prestigious 2010  Vaisala Award for Weather Observing and Instrumentation by the Royal  Meteorological Society (RMetS) for the Community Weather Information Network (Co-WIN).In its citation for the award, the RMetS highlighted Co-WIN's success in  enabling people of all ages, in particular schoolchildren, to  appreciate the elements through hands-on activities in running weather  stations. Apart from weather-data sharing, Co-WIN also provides a  platform for the exchange of observational experiences and for the  organisation of related educational activities. The RMetS also  recognised Co-WIN's achievement in demonstrating how groups can work  together to deliver high-quality community education on weather and  climate for the benefit of all.

To promote knowledge on aviation meteorology, the Hong Kong Observatory will organise "General Education Lectures on  Aviation Weather" in the Lecture Hall of Hong Kong Science Museum on 13 July 2011 (Wednesday). The lectures will cover weather observation and  measurement, weather hazards to aviation, how to interpret aviation  weather reports and forecasts, as well as the aviation weather services  provided by the Hong Kong Observatory.  The guest speakers will share their flying experience in Hong Kong and cross-country as well as use of weather information in flight planning.
