The Todd Weather Folios are a collection of continental Australian synoptic charts that were published from 1879 to 1909.

SYNOP (surface synoptic observations) is a numerical code (called FM-12 by WMO) used for reporting weather observations made by staffed and automated weather stations. SYNOP reports are typically sent every six hours by Deutscher Wetterdienst on shortwave and low frequency using RTTY .
The organisation aims to bring together those with an interest in observing the weather, their observations being compiled into monthly bulletins containing news, data and views. Stations range from those with a single raingauge to full-size synoptic and official climatological stations.
