AVERAGE AIR TEMPERATURES FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE 



JULY 



Sky: The records for July are fairly complete for only 3 years 

 and accordingly do not admit of the checking up and balancing 

 which is possible where we have more years to compare. It may 

 briefly be observed that the clear periods were somewhat in ex- 

 cess of the cloudy ones for the years under observation and that 

 the south winds were somewhat more common than those from 

 any other direction. The calm periods were surprisingly few. 



Winds: Northeast, west and northwest winds were the least 

 frequent, the prevailing wind being from the south. Periods of 

 calm were rather infrequent. 



Storms: Compared with other months, showers were rather 

 frequent; of fairly complete records of 34 months, we have only 

 six that equal or exceed that of this particular month.
