REMARKS 



The weather during June was unusually cold and stormy, es- 

 pecially the first half of the month. The backward condition of 

 vegetation which existed at the beginning of the month was not 

 materially changed during the month owing to the adverse features 

 which existed. On only a few days was really warm weather re- 

 corded. 



A comparison of the records of the several weather elements 

 with the normals shows the following features of interest : The mean 

 barometer was practically normal while the range of pressure was 

 only about two-thirds of the usual amount. Owing to the small 

 fluctuations of pressure the total wind movement was comparatively 

 small. The prevailing wind direction in the Northeast was a very 

 unusual feature for this locality. 



The mean hourly temperature was about five degrees below the 

 normal and the lowest since 1903. The maximum temperature was 

 more than seven degrees lower than usual and the lowest June 

 record for that feature since this station was established. The min- 

 imum temperature was practically normal. 



The mean dew point was more than three degrees lower than 

 usual and the relative humidity was more than three per cent higher 

 owing to the large amount of wet weather. 



The total precipitation was more than two inches above the 

 normal, making it the wettest June since 1904. 



Several heavy thunderstorms occurred during the first half of 

 the month. There was about one hundred hours of cloudiness more 

 than usual.
