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 164 2h, Heavy showers of hail since 14 30™ ; rain’? at present, with occasional flakes of snow. 
March 174 22h, Anemometer vane found frozen.
