1845.] Eleventh Memoir on the Law of Storms in India. 61 



The Fyzul Curreem in Lat. 5° 1 V S., but in Long. 83° 36' E., or two 

 degrees farther to the Westward has squally weather from N. N. W. 

 and the Fyzulbarry in Lat. 5° 38' and in 88.° 40' East, has it 

 threatening from the Eastward with a heavy N. E. sea, her* Bar. falling, 

 and p. m. the wind increasing to a gale from E. N. E. with a heavy 

 sea. We may thus assume that with this ship, at midnight, a storm 

 had fairly begun from N. E., at which we find it marked at 1 a. m. on 

 the morning of the 28th ; at what distance we have no means of judg- 

 *ng. I have therefore for this day marked but a single segment of a 

 circle through the Fyzulbarry's position, from a centre 240 miles due S. 

 E. of it, which is to be taken rather as an indication of the storm than 

 any thing else. 



On the 28th November We have the Winifred in 4° 27' N. and 



Fyzul Curreem in 2° 06' N. the first with '■' strong gales N. W. and 

 N. N. W. and gloomy weather with her Bar. falling a little, and 

 the latter with only a fresh breeze from about N. W. The Fyzul- 

 barry had her N. Easterly storm continuing and veering to E. N. E. 

 It is probable that as the Winifred and Fyzulbarry were only 220 

 miles apart on this day, the Winifred was just on the outskirts of the 

 storm which evidently lies betwixt them ; and as she was running to 

 the Southward she soon got clear of it. The Fyzul Curreem was 

 wholly out of its influence and the Candahar has, as yet, but a strong 

 monsoon gale. I have therefore placed the centre of the Fyzulbarry's 

 storm in Lat. 6° 00' N. Long. 88° 45' E. marking an arrow through 

 the Winifred's position to shew its effect upon her. 



29th November. — We have the Candahar with an evidently com- 

 mencing gale at N. E. and the Fyzulbarry with a furious one at N. 

 E. We have no other bearing or datum whereby to estimate the dis- 

 tance of the centre of this storm which now bore about S. E. from the 

 Fyzulbarry, but we find that it veered rapidly with her to N. N. E. 

 and by 11 : 30 p. m. to North ; of course as the vessel ran and drifted 

 round the N. W. quadrant. From the best estimate I can make, I 

 should with every allowance place the centre, which bore at noon S. 

 E. of this ship, in Lat. 6° 52' N. Long. 87° 48' E.* We have no 

 Lat. of the Carena, and of the Bittern only a Lat. of this day! 



* It was really in about 6° 00' N. } Long. 88° 00' East, by the Log of the John 

 Bnghtman. See note at the end.
