REMARKS. 



The weather for September was generally pleasant and seasonable, 

 the first and third decades, especially, having many clear days. The 

 equinoctial period was passed with less than the usual amount of 

 stormy weather. Departures from the normal for the various 

 weather elements were generally unimportant. 



The mean barometer for the month was slightly below the average 

 and the range was considerably greater than usual. The last third 

 of the month especially was marked by high pressure. The total 

 wind movement was about two-thirds the September normal and but 

 a single gale was noted. On several dates the total daily movement 

 was abnormally light. 



The mean temperature was more than a degree above the normal 

 and the range large owing to a high maximum. The mean dew 

 point and relative humidity were both nearly normal. 



The total precipitation was about ten per cent, more than the 

 usual amount and most of it fell during a few well-defined storms. 

 More than the average amount of bright sunshine was noted. 



Although there was a rather heavy frost on the morning of the 

 26th no especial damage was reported.
