REMARKS. 



The weather for November was marked by an unusually low mean 

 temperature, low mean barometer and a large amount of cloudiness. 

 The total precipitation while much less than the average was hardly 

 abnormally light. Traces of snow were unusually frequent for the 

 time of year although the measurable amount was very small. 



A comparison of the records with the mean November conditions 

 shows the following departures from the normal. 



The mean barometer was lower than any previous record for the 

 month at this station. Both the maximum and minimum were unus- 

 ually low and the range was less than usual. Two well marked 

 periods of low pressure were noted, the first making its minimum 

 record on the x4th and the second on the 25th. The .total wind 

 movement was only about five per cent more than the normal, not- 

 withstanding the large daily records from the 24th to the 29th 

 accompanying the low pressure at that time. 



The mean temperature was over three degrees below the normal, 

 giving the lowest November mean on our records here. The maxi- 

 mum and minimum records were both several degrees lower than 

 usual although the range was nearly normal. The maximums for 

 the last four days of the month were all well below the freezing 

 point. The mean dew point was over eight degrees below the 

 normal and the relative humidity about four per cent lower than 

 usual. 



The total precipitation was about an inch less than usual. Over 

 half the total fell during the storm of tlie 24th-25th. 



The month closed with the ground frozen, several inches of ice 

 formed and the general appearance of winter having begun.
