The general results, as shown in these tables, may be pointed out as briefly 

 the following : — 



1. A pre valency of south-west winds. 



2. The annual temperature very slightly in excess of the mean. 



3. The atmospheric pressure very slightly below the mean. 



4. The number of rainy days slightly in excess, and varying at the different 

 stations, and in no regular ratio with the quantity of rain. 



* The gauge at Seathwaite, I have been informed, was not examined daily, only on the days 

 specified in the table. As observations were made on the 25th, 26th, and 27th, there can be no 

 doubt respecting the correctness of the amount, 7'52 inches, during the twenty-four hours. 



In the preceding table, the number of rainy days at Seathwaite is given as the same as at 

 Keswick, where a strict account was kept. It is believed by those acquainted with the two localities, 

 nine miles only apart, that when there is rain at Keswick there is a certainty of rain at Seathwaite.
