REMARKS 



The weather during November was characterized by the large 

 amount of sunshine and small precipitation. During the first three 

 weeks of the month not a trace of rain was noted and the remainder 

 of the month had only one storm of any consequence. Notwithstand- 

 ing the large amount of sunshine, the weather was considerably colder 

 than usual and the last week was good winter weather. Some days 

 showed unusually low mean temperatures for so early in the winter 

 season. 



The record of the several weather elements shows the following as 

 the principal features : The mean barometer was higher than the 

 normal and the range less than usual. The minimum pressure was 

 considerably higher than the normal for this feature. During the 

 last few days of the month a period of high pressure with considerable 

 wind from the north points was concurrent with the low temperature. 

 The total wind movement was, however, considerably less than nor- 

 mal and only two gales were noted. 



The mean temperature was more than three degrees lower than 

 usual, and the minimum for the month was more than six degrees 

 below the normal for this feature, giving a comparatively large range. 



The mean dew point and relative humidity were both several points 

 below their normals. The total precipitation was only about one- 

 fifth of the usual amount. A light fall of snow occurred near the end 

 of the month. At the close of the month small ponds were frozen 

 over and safe for skating.
