REMARKS 



The weather during the month was marked by a very high 

 relative humidity and a rather small precipitation. Consider- 

 able fog, much cloudiness and variable wind direction were also 

 important features. 



Some rather cool weather was noted early in the month and 

 again the last week of the month. The warmest day was the 

 25th and the coldest only two days later on the 27th. The 

 equinoctial period was passed without any storms of consequence. 

 Frost threatened about the middle of the month and again near 

 the close, but none was noted at the station. Very light frost 

 was reported on the low ground in the vicinity but practically no 

 damage was done. 



The absence of frost for two weeks after the usual date, 

 enabled the crops which were so backward early in the season, 

 to mature without damage. The wind movement was very 

 small and no gales of even moderate intensity were registered. 



The mean barometer was very high- and the range of 

 pressure small. The mean temperature was two degrees below 

 the normal and the maximum temperature was normal but oc- 

 curred rather late in the month. The minimum temperature 

 was fully five degrees higher than usual. 



The mean dew point was two degrees below the normal and 

 the relative humidit}^ five per cent above the nonnal. 



The total precipitation was but little more than one-third of 

 the usual amount and there were no heavy storms. 



The wind movement was nearly a thousand miles less than 

 usual. 



The amount of sunshine was much less than usual.
