THE SUNSHINE OF GUERNSEY. 



The sunniest day of the year was July 7th, when 15 

 hours were recorded, being 94% of the possible sunshine. 



The sunniest week gave 99*95 hours. 



The sunniest month, July, gave 337*73 hours. 



The table just read shows that the months April to 

 September, inclusive, give a mean of only one sunless day 

 each.

In Table No. IV. I give a comparison between Guern- 

 sey and nine other Stations, by which it will be seen that for 

 1898 the Island gives the highest record, which also occurred 

 in 1897.
