We frequently find the winds blowing exactly toward eat 

 other, from two stations less than 100 miles apart. General! 

 such winds are feeble, but occasionally they are very stron 

 and in such cases we generally find that rain is falling in th 

 vicinity. The following i, etion and velocil 



of the wind at Savannah, Charleston and Augusta in eigl 

 cases in which at two of these stations the winds were a 

 proaching each other at a rate of more than twenty miles pi 

 hour. The table also shows the rain-fall for the eight hou 

 preceding and the eight hours following the date given i 

 column second. Charleston is distant from Savannah eight; 

 five miles and from Augusta 125 miles ; the distance fro 

 Savannah to Augusta is 104 miles.
