The direction of the wind is indicated by the number of the point of the compass, reckoning N. = 0, E.= 8, 8.=16, W.= 24. The 
motions of the three strata of clouds, Sc. (scud), C.-s. (cirro-stratus), and Ci. (cirrus), are indicated in a similar manner. 
March 22 44 40™, The clouds were marked with hollows and hanging fragments ; heavy gusts of wind and drops of rain.
