REMARKS. 



The month was characterized by heavy rainfalls ; the showers oc- 

 curred mostly at night and were accompanied with heavy thunder 

 and brilliant displays of lightning. The amount of precipitation was 

 much above the average. The mean temperature was nearly two 

 degrees above the normal for August, which was due largely to the 

 high temperature for the first twenty-one days of the month. Of the 

 Washington and local forecasts i>6.7 per cent, of each were found 

 correct for Amherst.
