Meteorological Observations 



[No. 33, 



Table VI. exhibits the result of the estimation of the amount of 

 elouds covering the face of the sky (derived from the hourly obser-^ 

 vations), in which unity (1) would represent a sky completely co- 

 vered with clouds : these observations are registered in eighths in 

 the large volume already alluded to, but the decimal notation here 

 adopted, will I imagine prove more convenient.
