The International Ice Patrol for 1930 was discontinued on June 10. The patrol vessel passed out of range 

 to receive reports of ice by radio on June 13. .\11 prepatrol and postpatrol ice reports were obtained from 

 the Hydrographic Bulletin of the U. S. Hydrographic OfHce and from special reports from the Government 

 radio station at Cape Race, Newfoundland. 



WEATHER 



The International Ice Patrol is very much concerned with weather 

 conditions. During fine weather many ice reports are received 

 and large areas are searched over for ice. During foggy and stormy 

 weather it is exceptional for ice to be sighted or reported. Shipmas-

 weather the patrol vessel is experiencing. To cut down the number 

 of such inquiries, it has become customary to include a short descrip- 

 tion of the latest weather conditions in each regular and special 

 broadcast sent out. 



This section records in concise form the most important features 

 of the weather experienced by the patrol vessels during the 1930 

 patrol season. The information is tabulated month by month almost
