Climate & Weather Data

After searching the National Center for Environmental Information, I have included data from counties within the Upper Clinch River watershed in Virginia: Tazewell, Russell, Wise, and Scott County. Within the images below, there is a Global Summary (2016) and Annual Report (1981- 2010) from the following sites: Big Stone Gap (Wise County), Wise (Wise County), Richlands (Tazewell), Burkes Garden (Tazewell). There is also 2016 Global Summary on Lebanon (Russell) with no Annual Report to accompany, and a Gate City Global Summary 2015 with no Annual Report.








Above is a Horticultural Zoning Map of Southwest Virginia from the USDA. This map show climate in relation to plants that are most likely to survive in the locality.

Starting a Non-profit

Upon deciding the name, checking for availability is second. There were 2 websites listed to check for names trademarked: http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=tess&state=4806:4tp3vy.1.1 & https://sccefile.scc.virginia.gov/NameAvailability The next step the document list is choosing a Board of Directors; however, I feel before forming a board the mission and vision statement should be completed. After the Board of Directors are selected, Completing and signing the Articles of Incorporation is priority. Here is a link to Virginia's specific form. There is a fee attached to this step; the filling fees chart can be found here .writing the non-profit's. Drafting the By Laws are next. It is suggested in the publication to seek legal advice during the By Laws and Articles of Incorporation.

Maps

I had no knowledge of this tool before this assignment. MyMaps was easy to use and understand. The downfall was on my part attempting to identify habitats of locations I have visited. This is a tool I would use again for other projects or assignments in the future. Click Here for the map.
