(Past President of the Royal Meteorological Society ). 



returns were received this year : after careful 

 scrutiny forty-six have been adopted for com- 

 puting the tabulated statements appended ; 

 the other four, being incomplete, are not 

 available, and are only incidentally referred 

 to. The forty-six selected comprise forty- 

 five with complete daily records and one with 

 monthly abstracts. The returns shewing 

 the number of rainy days in Table III. are 



restricted to the thirty-eight marked with an asterisk in Table II. 



for reasons explained in the report for 1900. 



Five names of old stations, with a change of observers or 



under other conditions, have been restored to the list : three 



appear for the first time. The former include Bloxworth House ; 



Kimmeridge, Smedmore ; Moreton House ; Sturminster Newton ; 



and Winterbourne Whitchurch, Longthorns. The latter are 



Bourton, Chaffeymoor; Chetnole House ; and Worth Matravers.
