REMARKS 



The weather during August presented no marked variations 

 from normal conditions although somewhat more pleasant than usual 

 for this period. This was due to the fact that there were but few 

 days when the maximum temperature became oppressive. More 

 than the usual amount of wind was from the south points and the 

 total wind movement was rather large. 



Comparing the records of the several weather elements with 

 the mormal values for this station the following features are noted : 

 The mean barometer was higher than any previous August here and 

 the range was rather large. The maximum and minimum were 

 both lower than the normal values for this month. 



The mean temperature was slightly lower than the normal and 

 the maximum and minimum for the month were both below average 

 values, while the range was rather small. 



The mean due point and relative humidity were both below the 

 normals. 



The total precipitation was slightly less than the average and 

 nearly the whole amount fell in three well defined storms. 



The total wind movement was nearly 40 per cent more than the 

 normal, although but one moderate gale was recorded. 



The amount of sunshine was practically normal and nearly all 

 the days were either clear or fair. The number of days showing 

 precipitation was small.
