N.B. — The time of registration at Hobart Town, 

 lOh. 33m. p.m., being after dark, renders it impossible 

 to make the -wind and cloud records more than ap- 

 proximately correct. The rainfall is measured at 

 7h. 30m. a.m. local time. 



In all tables furni.shed from this Observatory the 

 barometer readings are corrected for temperature, 

 index error, and to mean sea level.
