March 5 . Wind South. 6 th, Wind W eft, then North, 
9th, Wind South: All droughty Weather with fmali 
Frofts. 
To thefe Meteors I might add our Hurricanes, 
Storms of Thunder and Lightning, with Hail or 
Rain; but fuch as keep Journals of the Weather, and 
read the public News, are no Strangers to thefe: 
I fhall only add, that our Northern Lights have been 
much feldomer, and fainter, both in Appearance and 
Motion, than formerly; and whether they will 
dwindle away and vanilh wholly for fome Years, or 
whether they have had their former periodic Returns, 
is not certain : Nor is it lefs dubious, whether they 
affed our Weather, Seafons, and Animal Bodies, or 
not. Were it not too tedious, I might here fubjoin 
a Lift of all the Chafms or Burnings in the Heavens, 
recorded in our Annals.
