REMARKS 



The weather during September was much more cloudy than usual, 

 although the precipitation was comparatively small. A high relative 

 humidity with a correspondingly high dew point was also shown by 

 the records. The total wind movement was small, and not a single 

 gale was noted. The force of wind instrument showed practically 

 no wind pressure on more than two-thirds of the days, and only four 

 days showed a pressure exceeding one pound. 



Following a trace of frost on the 31st of August, no other frost 

 was observed until the last three days of the month, when light frosts 

 were noted. The month closed without any damage from frost in 

 this locality. 



An analysis of .the records for the month shows the mean barome- 

 ter was practically normal, with a less range than usual. The maxi- 

 mum temperature was about two degrees below the average maxi- 

 mum for September, and the minimum was more than two degrees 

 higher than the normal value for this feature, giving a comparatively 

 small range. The mean temperature was practically normal. The 

 last three days were decidedly the coldest of the month. 



The total precipitation was about 60 per cent of the normal, and 

 occurred as numerous small storms. Two rather heavy thunder 

 showers were noted. 



Nearly half the days were cloudy or overcast, and more than 40 

 hours less sunshine than usual was registered on the sunshine re- 

 corder.
