JOHN A. HOLMES, M.A.' 



(iii.) Climate. As the climate of a district naturally affects 

 the plant life, and is, in its turn, dependent on the physical 

 features, an account of the Flora of Harleston will not be 

 complete without a brief summary of its meteorology. Full 

 particulars are obtainable through the careful and long con- 

 tinued observations made by the Rev. Charles Gape, M.A., 

 (late) F. Met. Soc., at Rushall Vicarage, who has kindly placed 

 his records in the writer's hands to use as most desirable. 



From these observations we find that the average tempe- 

 rature of the Harleston neighbourhood is a little below that 

 of Norwich, probably owing to the open nature of the country. 

 The following analysis of the temperature for three years shows 

 the lowest and highest reading of the thermometer (in the 

 shade), and the mean temperature of day and night combined. 

 The instruments are exposed. 



TEMPERATURE. 



The average heat on a summer day at Harleston is about 

 75; on a winter day it is about 42. The average cold on a 



Record imperfect.
