The first edition of this important meteorological work, based on 26 years' worth of observations contained important contributions regarding weather prediction. Pilgram was a Jesuit astronomer at the Vienna observatory, and he maintained meteorological records of Vienna's weather from 1762 to 1786. He was one of the first to realize that barometrical variations foretold changes in the weather.
