t This low area appeared to coalesce with the low next preceding. 
points thus determined were connected by straight lines, and 
the probable track of the low area was thus obtained. e 
Same method was pursued with each of the charts to Novem- 
near the coast of the United States, and was able to follow 
thirty-six of them with considerable confidence entirely across 
im other storms before reaching the European coast, leaving 
only twenty-eight different low areas which reached the coast
