REMARKS 



The weather during November was more stormy than usual, and 

 the change in weather conditions rather rapid in several instances 

 Several heavy rainstorms occurred, and the precipitation during the 

 storm of the 26th — 27th was more than two inches. Only traces of 

 snow were noted. The amount of sunshine was small and the last 

 week of the month was especially gloomy. While thin ice formed on 

 several dates no especially cold weather occurred, and the ground 

 was practically free from frost when the month closed. 



The records of the several weather elements show the following 

 features: The mean barometer was higher than the normal and the 

 range of pressure slightly less than usual. The rapid fall in pres- 

 sure during the storm on the 29th and the rise on the 30th after the 

 storm were noticeable features. The wind movement was considera- 

 bly more than the normal and the wind direction more variable than 

 usual. 



The mean hourly temperature showed that the month was slightly 

 warmer than usual, and both the maximum and minimum tempera- 

 tures w^re several degrees above their normals. A rise in tempera- 

 ture of nearly twenty degrees in two hours near midnight of the 29th 

 was a very abnormal feature. 



The mean dew point was about a degree above the normal and the 

 relative humidity several points higher than usual. 



The total precipitation was nearly twice the normal and nearly all 

 of it occurred either during the first five days of the month or the 

 last five days of the month. 



The amount of sunshine was nearly normal, although one-half the 

 number of days were recorded as cloudy or overcast.
