In the middle, Rain about the Middle of the Day 
In the under Part, Rain in the Evening, or Night 
before Bed-time; and when placed upon the Lines 
which divides the Days, then it rained in the Night. 
I have obferved the fame Rule with the Character 
of Thunder, in placing the upper Part of it a (£*) 
in the fame manner as of the Character of Rain ; and 
likewife have placed it in that Diredion, by which 
the Point of the Compafs where the Thunder began, 
may be known, the Part (^) pointing to the Place 
where the Thunder began, fuppofing the Points of 
the Compafs to lie in the fame manner in the Tables 
as in Maps. The numerical Figures placed upon its 
Left-hand, exprefs the Degree, Violence, or Conti- 
nuance of the Thunder, 4 being the greatefl. 
Of the Wind’s Force, i am obliged to judge by my 
Senfes. Four Degrees of it being inefficient in fuch 
Experiments, I have made Eight. For a (mail In- 
crease of the Wind’s Force has a confiderable Influ- 
ence in Sweeping away the Heat of our Cloaths ; and, 
thereby cooling the Skin, diminifhes Perfpiration. 
The Depth of the Rain is in Inches and Decimals. 
I make Three Obfervations, by thefe Inftruments, 
of the Weather every Day, viz. in the Morning, and 
at Bed-time, at the fame Hours in which I weigh 
myfelf, and the other at Three p. m. 
Cubiculi Calor is the Heat of the Room where I 
Beep or fit, by Fahrenheit’s Thermometer ; have 
mentioned in the Obfervationes MiJcelL when I was 
expofed, in it, to the Wind. 
Thus have I now fpent near One Year, with no 
fmall Labour, Confinement, and Expence in the 
Lofs of Pradiee, in making thefe Experiments and
