The general character of the air motion remained the same, except 

 in the neighbourhood of the moving area of depression. Southerly winds 

 now prevailed in the Central Provinces. The westerly winds on the 

 Bombay coast were slightly stronger than they had been on the previous 

 day. The easterly winds prevalent over the area to the north and 

 north-east of the storm centre were comparatively dry, and little or no 

 rain fell in that part of the depression where they were blowing. The 

 rainfall was heavy in the southern quadrant of the disturbance. 



Little or no rain was falling at the time in Assam, North Bengal, 

 Behar, the North- Western Provinces, the Punjab, and over the greater 

 part of Bombay. 



During the interval between 4 p. m. of the 1st and 10 A. m. of the 

 2nd, the centre continued to advance in a general westerly direction 

 through the Narbadda Division of the Central Provinces. 



The following are the observations taken at the meteorological 

 stations in the area of depression at 10 A. M. of the 2nd.
