60 Eleventh Memoir on the Law of Storms in India. [No. 157. 



Ainslie, and Fleming, all not far from the same parallel of Lat. 

 but dispersed over four degrees of Long. The Fleming (position 

 uncertain) being the Westernmost, and Futtle Rozack farthest to the E. 

 We have the Ugie also about a degree to the Southward of them, and 

 the weather is fair, or clearing up fast with a fair Easterly breeze, for all 

 these ships by noon on this day, as being on the S. E. quadrant of the 

 storm, had run or drifted out of it ; and had no doubt now a part of 

 the usual trade wind. The Sophia is found on this day in about the 

 Lat. of the centre of the 1st, and she has the wind at North, at noon, 

 from a heavy gale at N. W. on the preceding days, shewing evidently 

 that her storm could not have been the same as the one we have been 

 considering, i. e. that of the Futtle Rozack, Ugie and and other ships. 

 She notes also, that at midnight between the 1st and 2nd there was a 

 heavy sea coming up from S. W. which was in all probability the sea 

 from the Ugie's storm, to judge by the positions of our circles. 



PART II. 



Storms in the Northern Hemisphere. 



25th November. — In the Northern Hemisphere we have nothing 

 extraordinary for this day, the Carena off Ceylon having light airs 

 and the Winifred in the middle of the bay in Lat. 13° a fresh monsoon 

 with an average Bar. 



26th November. — The Winifred, Candahar, and Fyzul Curreem, 

 have winds and weather indicating a change, though there is nothing 

 sufficiently pronounced to be called, as yet, the commencement of a 

 storm, and the Bars, of both the Candahar and Winifred are high. 



27th November, — We have three ships, the Winifred, Fyzulbarry 

 and Fyzul Curreem, each with signs of the approaching storm, which 

 was afterwards so severe with the Fyzulbarry, (and perhaps the Colo- 

 nel Burney}) The Winifred in Lat. 7° 4' N. and Long. 85° 56' 

 E. at noon is running rapidly to the South, the wind veering from E. 

 N. E. at noon to North at 8 p. m., and N. N. W. at 4 a. m. with thick 

 gloomy weather and violent squalls, "giving little warning" says Cap- 

 tain Webb ; an apt phrase to designate squalls thrown off from the 

 periphery of a rotatory storm, if they were such.
