REMARKS 



The weather during the month was generally fair and marked 

 by a large amount of sunshine, only three days being recorded as 

 cloudy. The heavy rain which occurred near the last of May was 

 followed by a long dry period as practically no precipitation was 

 noted this month until the last week. On the 29th an exceedingly 

 heavy rainfall occurred which effectively broke the drought. The 

 last week of the month was generally sultry and cloudy. 



The records of the several elements show the following features 

 of interest : The barometer records were generally normal and pre- 

 sented no features of especial interest. The total wind movement 

 was slightly more than the normal and the large amount from the 

 south southwest and north northeast was very noticeable. There 

 was only a single gale recorded on the wind pressure chart. 



The mean temperature was practically normal and the maxi- 

 mum temperature nearly five degrees higher than usual. The 

 warmest part of the month was from the 20th to the 26th. The 

 first third of the month was generally cool during the nights. 



The mean dew point and relative humidity were both slightly 

 lower than their normals. 



The total precipitation was nearly twenty per cent more than the 

 normal although there was scarcely any before the 26th. Nearly all 

 of the heavy downpour on the 29th occured between 5 p. m. and 10 

 p. M. 



The amount of sunshine was more than twenty per cent above 

 the normal.
