aeronie movement of the winds nearly stationary as will be 
own hereafter. In No. 2 there was a small barometric de- 
ee i conclude that each of these cases of great rain- 
“aad - perhaps one or two exceptions) occurred within an 
ings pibertre somewhat below the mean, or at least a pres- 
elatively low, and that there was a cyclonic movement 
oF the winds about this low center. 
In order to show the position of these heavy rain-falls with 
Pras my seventeenth paper. Column 11th of the preceding 
4e shows the quadrant in whieh each of these rain centers 
: a8 situated, except that in a few cases the direction corre- 
eooeded very nearly with one of the cardinal points, and this 
* indicated’ by the letters N, E, 0 There are also five 
ti marked with the character ? which will be considered 
ereafter. The following is a summary of the number of cases 
of great rain-falls for each of the four quadrants about the e 
center of low pressure : eek
