REMARKS 



The weather during the month was seasonable in most respects 

 and the transition from Summer to Autumn practically completed 



The dry period was prolonged until after the equinoctial date 

 causing the water supply in places to give out. The last week of 

 the month however had considerable rain, although the total for 

 the month was less than one-half the normal. 



The first frost of the season occurred on the 15th and a mod- 

 erate killing frost on the 18th, which is about the average time 

 for this locality. The first third of the month was much the 

 warmest part. 



The several weather elements presented the following features 

 of interest. The mean barometer was rather high and the range 

 of pressure less than usual. The total wind movement was about 

 twenty per cent less than the normal and not a single gale was 

 recorded on the pressure chart. 



The mean temperature was slightly higher than the normal and 

 the maximum and minimum records were both about their aver- 

 age values. The range of temperature on the 18th of 49 degrees 

 was extremely large for this station. 



The mean dew-point and relative humidity were both higher 

 than their normal records. 



Only two rainstorms of more than one-half inch were noted. 



While the amount of sunshine was above the normal, the last 

 third of the month had considerable cloudy weather.
