788 MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW. MAY, 1912
C~LIMATOLOGIC'AL DATA FOR &4Y, 1912.
DISTRICT NO. 12, COLUMBIA VALLEY.
EDWARD A. BEALS, Dihtrict Editor. THEODORE F. DRAKE, Acting District Editor.
May in this district was a nearly normnl month, both
a9 to temperature and iiioisture. Although niiiiiiiiuni
temperatures were generally lower than usunl and frosts
formed in many sections on several dates, no reported
damage occurred, as vegetation and fruit were too far advanced to be seriously injured except by estreine
cold weather. I n portions of western Oregon, however, some damage was done in April to prunes, plums, and apples by frost cluring the blossoming period, sncl in the
Stuck River Vnlley of western Wnshingt80n t8he cloucly, stormy weather a t the beginning of May interfered with
the pollenizntion of late currants and cherries, so they
are not well set. Transportation was not nirtterictlly
interfered with during the month, and construction roceedecl without much interruption. At) the
close work o F the month the outlook froni an aqricaltwal nncl horticultural standpoint is much more favornlde tdinn
it has been for a great many yenrs. Especially is t81iis
true of sections to eastward of tlie Cascttcle Mountains, where there is usually less pre~ipitttt~ion tlinn has occurred
this spring.
TEMPERATURE.
The average tfmperature, as determined from 259
stations, was 54.6', or 0.5' above the normal. The
weather averaged wttrnier than usual in the western por- tion of the district and colder tlinn usual in the enstern
portion. Only at a few stations wits the inonthly mean
temperature below 50'. The weather R I ~S warmest during the iiiiclclle of tlie second and the last half of the
third decade, rnasiniirm temperatures generally occurring froin tlie 13th to 17t8h and on the 29th. The coldest
weather, as a rule, occurrPd during the first, week, and
niinimuiii tt.mperatures were recorded princi.p:tlly during the first four days of the month. The highest nieitii
temperatmure w'ns 64' at, Blalock, Oreg., and tlie lowest
was 3S.S0, a t Snake River, in 17ellowstone Park, Wyo.
The highest temperature recorded mitli thermometers exposed in a standard instrument, shelter was 9S0, a t
Hood River, Oreg., on tlie I-Cth, and the lowest was 12',
at Moran, Wyo., on the Zd, and at Pierson, Iclaho, on
the 3d.
PRECIPITATION.
The average precipit,ation, as cleterniinecl froin the
records of 376 stittions, was 3.37 inches, or 0.05 inch above the normal. The rainfall was deficient in western Wztsli-
ington, nortliwestern Oregon, northern and portions of southeastern Idnho, and northwestern Montnnn, niid the
greatest excesses, as a rule, were in central and interior southwestern Oregon, southeastern Washington, west-
central Idaho, nncl soutliwmtern hlontnna. There were
two well-defined rttiny periods, the 1st to 6th and tlie
19th to 30th; only local showers occurred during the
intervening periocl. Tlie geittest montldy amount
recorded wits 10.03 inches, a t Happy Honie, Oreg.., in the
Umpcua drainage area, and the least was 0.12 inch, at Lost t'reek, Wwli., in the Columbia drainage basin. Tlie
greatest 24-liour rainfall reported was 2.22 inches on t8he
SOtli, at Scdro Woolley, Wash., in the Puget Sound drain-
nge area. Some snow fell in elevated sections, principally in the c.strcnie east,erri portion of the district, tlie greatest
monthly amount being 27 inches a t Musick, Oreg., in the TJinpqua drainage area.
THE RIVERS.
The Columhia River rose steaclil during the month ant1 :tverngecl slightly below normal Its lowest stages
n t Vancouver nnd Uinatilla occurred on the 1st aiid were
S.6 feet and 9.8 feet, respectively. The highest stages
a t these stiltions occurred on the 31st, and were 19.4 feet
and 20 feet, respectively. The water reached 32.3 feet
at Tlie Dalles 011 the 31st. This is a high stage for boats
of the present ower capacity, but as light loads were
carried the regu F ar schedule was being adhered to rtt tlie
close of the month.
-
The Willamette River averaged 0.S foot above normal. At Portland it aver:?ged 6.9 feet higher tlian during April,
clue to the annual rise in the Coliunbia, but in its micldle
ttncl upper courses it was only about a foot above its
nveritge stages for April. It reached flood stage, 15 feet,
a t Portland on the 20th, and remained above until tlie 31st, when its highest stage for tlie month, 19.1 feet, wits
rcwhed. Warnings were sent to shippers in advance of
the rise, and wharves were cleared in due time to prevent injury from hizh wnter.
The Snake River averngetl 1.2 feet above normal, and the highest stage reported was 15.9 feet a t Lewiston on
the 30th. Its lowest stages were reached on the 7th tit
Ripnrin and Lewiston, and on the 8th at Weiser.
MISCELLANEOUS PHENOMENA.
Thunderstorms were most frequent from the 18th to
31st aiid from the 25th to the 29th. A rather severe thiuncleis torm, accompitnied by hail, occurred at Warm-
spring, Oreg., 011 the 19th. It is reported that tlie light- ning killed some live stock and struck some trees in this
vicinity. Light frosts were of general occurrence on the
Bth, loth, and 23d. They occurred a t vnsious eleva- tions, ranging from a few feet in some instances to several
liunclrecl feet in the central plateau of the district. Heavy frosts formed in eastern Oregon, and quite gener-
ally in parts of Idnho and Montana. Little if any clam-
age has been done to the fruit blossoms or to the growing
crops. Wind velocities were relatively light and the sun- shine arid cloucliness tzbou t normal. Cooperative observ-
ers in practically all sections report good growing weather.
