REMARKS 



The weather during the month was practically devoid 

 of unusual features and presented but little that calls for 

 comment. Perhaps the large amount of cloudiness and the 

 few clear days was as noticeable as any single feature. The 

 relative humidity was high and the absence of any high wind 

 noticeable. The first frost of the season was a little later than 

 usual and rather heavy for a first frost. Nearly all the pre- 

 cipitation occurred during the first half of the month. 



The maximum and minimum barometers were both higher 

 than their respective normals and the mean pressure was 

 slightly lower than usual. The range of pressure was a little 

 greater than usual. 



The mean temperature was practically normal and the 

 minimum temperature nearly six degrees lower than usual giv- 

 ing a large range for the month. Several days of rather low 

 temperature were recorded during the last third of the month. 



The mean relative humidity was about five per cent 

 higher than the normal. The total precipitation was about 

 one inch less than the normal and over one half of it occurred 

 during the heavy storm of the 6th and 7th. 



The total wind movement was practically normal; as to 

 direction about one half of the time it was either from the 

 South Southwest or the directly opposite North Northeast. 

 There were a number of days when no pressure was registered 

 on the pressure chart, and not a single gale was noted. 



The amount of cloudiness was considerably more than 

 usual.
