SPECIES OF CLOUDS, &c. 
Patches of scud: scud + masses of cirri, cirro-strati to E. 
Id. + cirro-strati to N. and S. 
Linear, woolly, and mottled cirri + cirro-cumuli. 
Linear cirri and cirrous haze. 
Patches of scud on E. and S. horizon; dense mass of cirro-stratus. 
Masses of seud +~ thick cirrous haze; light rain. 
Scud + id; a few drops of rain. 
Smoky scud: cirrous scud + woolly cirri; clouds breaking. 
Homogeneous scud ; occasional showers. 
Two currents of scud. 
Scud ; occasional showers. 
Scud, nearly homogeneous; light rain, mist. 
Id., id. ; id., id. 
Homogeneous seud ; rain till 21» 45™, 
Two currents of scud +— cirrous haze. 
Scud ; raining towards Cheviot. 
Id. + cirrous clouds. 
‘Scud, hanging in ragged curtains and dropping rain, moving quickly + cirrous clouds. 
Thin scud, cirrous clouds; showers; scud low on Cheviot. 
Scud ; cirrous clouds. 
Woolly cirro-cumuli and cirro-cumulo-strati. 
Id. + cirro-strati and linear cirri to NW. 
Scud and loose cumuli +— cirro-strati to E. and W.; patches of mottled cirri. [strati to SE, 
Cirrous-edged cumuli, moving very slowly, apparently acted on by different currents : feathered linear cirri to W. pointing from SSW. + cirro- 
Cirrous-edged cumuli, as before: masses of cirro-cumuli, rather large at the middle and getting gradually smaller, till at the edges they become 
small points almost indistinguishable from haze, the cirro-cumuli move faster than the cumuli + cirro-strati and haze to SE. 
Ragged-edged cumuli from W., the edges near the zenith breaking into zigzag cirrous fragments, which 
move in various directions + woolly cirri; hazy to E. 
Ragged-edged cumuli as before: linear cirri, civro-cumuli of all sizes, small cumulo-strati, &c. + cumulo-strati; cirrous haze to E. 
Cumuli and seud: beautiful ranges of cirro-cumuli to E., flame-cirri in zenith, mottled cirri to W. all lying from SSW to NNE. 
Cirro-cumuli, cirro-strati, and cirrous haze. 
Loose cumuli, the edges broken ‘into patches which dissipate + thick mass of linear cirri to E., range of 
small cumuli to NNE., heavy mist on the ground. 
Two currents of scud. 
Cirrous-edged cumuli +— patches of cirri. 
Id. and scud. 
Id. 
Ragged-edged cumuli, in ranges on S. horizon. 
Cumuli on §. horizon. 
Scud to 8. and W.: flame-cirri to W. +- cumuli on S. horizon. 
Cirro-cumulo-strati; a streak of hazy cirrus moving across the face of the moon. 
Cirro-cumulous scud : cirrous clouds over the sky, in uniform sheets having a sort of stratified form point-. 
ing from NNW. to SSE., the lowest portions of it becoming cirro-cumulous at the edges. 
Patches of scud + homogeneous cirrous mass through which the sun is seen like a bright spot one-half his diameter: a bright strip to E. 
Linear cirri and cirrous haze +~ cirro-strati near horizon ; patches of scud. 
Scud, moving slowly + thick cirrous haze. 
Id. id. 
Scud : a dense mass of cirro-cumuli, moving slowly + linear cirri and cirrous haze. 
Scud. 
Cirro-cumulous scud : flame and linear cirri + cirro-strati to W. 
Cirro-cumulous scud, cirrous clouds and haze all deeply tinged with red at 94; patches of cirro-cumuli.
