THE SUNSHINE OF GUEKNSEY FOR 1900. 



BY ME. A. COLLENETTE, F.C.S., F.R. MET. SOC. 



The year 1900 has been the fourth best of the seven years 

 of which I now have a record. That is to say we have had 

 three better and three worse years. The year, though beaten 

 by three years of the period, has given more sunshine than 

 the average.
