REMARKS 



The weather during the month was somewhat warmer than 

 normal, and the precipitation was comparatively small. The 

 snow on the ground at the beginning of the month soon melted 

 and the ground was practically free from snow nearly the whole 

 month. A few light snowstorms occurred but the warm days 

 which followed each storm soon left the ground bare. Two short 

 periods of zero weather occurred after the middle of the month. 

 ■ The records of the several weather elements show the following 

 features of interest: The mean barometer was rather high, and 

 the range of p'ressure nearly normal. An exceptionally high 

 barometer was noted on the 19th, which was also the coldest 

 day of the month. Variations in pressure were quite marked and 

 resulted in a total wind movement considerably greater than the 

 normal. Nearly all the wind was from the westerh- point of the 

 compass. 



The mean temperature was about two degrees higher than the 

 normal and the first part of the month was the wannest period. 

 The range of temperature was nearly normal. 



The total precipitation was only about sixty per cent of the 

 normal, and the greater part occurred as rain. 



The mean dew point was rather low and the relative humidity 

 considerably below the normal. 



On three dates the daily wind movement exceeded four hun- 

 dred miles. 



The amount of sunshine was comparatively large.
