1903.] 0. Little — On iwo remarkable rain-bursts in Bengal, 





From Table VIII (a) it can lie seen that the lowest temperature in 

 Assam was on June 30th, in North Bengal on July 1st, in Bihar and 

 the United Provinces on the 3rd, in the Punjab on the 4th, and in 

 Kashmir on the 5th. The very low temperatures which are shown at 

 Srinagar and Leh on the 27th were connected with conditions, then pre- 

 vailing in Western India, and have no connection with the disturbance 

 or series of disturbances which I have been discussing. 



A very striking feature of Table VIII (a) is the large fall of tem- 

 perature in Northern India between June 30th and July 4th. In the 

 United Pi'ovinces the change was from an excess of 10° on the 30th to 

 a small defect on the 3rd, and in the Punjab from excess of 8° on July 

 1st to defect of 5°-9 on the 4th.
