REMARKS 



The weather during the month was considerably warmer than 

 usual at this time of year and a comparatively small range of tem- 

 perature. A comparatively high barometer, with a considerable 

 number of gales was also a feature of more than passing interest. 

 The precipitation was much less than the November average. 



An examination of the records of the several weather elements and 

 comparison with the means for the month shows the following features 

 of interest : The mean barometer was nearly one-tenth of an inch 

 higher than the normal for November and the range was unusually 

 large. On the 9th a rapid fall was noted, culminating in the lowest 

 record for the month. During the last week of the month an un- 

 usually high barometer prevailed. 



The total wind movement was large and two gales of more than 

 50 miles per hour were registered on the pressure chart. Much of 

 the wind was from the Northwest quadrant. 



The mean temperature was about four degrees higher than the 

 normal and the maximum and minimum for the month were both 

 high — the minimum being more than eleven degrees higher than the 

 normal for this element for November. The range was unusually 

 small. The range on the 6th was nearly as large as the total range 

 for the month. 



The mean dew point was high and the relative humidity less than 

 the normal value. 



The total precipitation was about two-thirds of the normal and was 

 fairly well distributed throughout the month. 



The ground was frozen but little during the month. As a result 

 the last snow and rainfall added considerably to the moisture in the 

 ground. 



The amount of sunshine recorded was slightlyjless than the normal-
