QENERAL SUMMARY.
August was both cool and dry. Regarding tenipera- ture, i t may be said that the present month was one in which the usual high afternoon temperatures did not
occur. The cause is not apparent, but is probably con-
nected with some general condition affecting the whole
Pacific slope. There was considerable cloudiness and
less sunshine than usual. The month is normally one of little rain and much sunshine. This month there was
less rain than in any month since records have been kept.
August, 1910, was a dry August, but August, 1911, sur-
passed it in this respect. Last year 87 per cent of the
stations reported 110 rain during the month; while this year 96 per cent of the stations macle the same report. Notwithstanding the dryness, the month was on the
whole a pleasant one. There was a good supply of water. and visitors and tourists were able to get into the moun-
tains and view waterfalls running full, which usually at this time of year show a marked decrease in the vol-
ume of water niovino. The present month was in
marked contrast with h e same month last year. Then the early stop age of the rains and the limited water
courses than had been known for many years. Last year
the waterfalls ran dry a t an early date and roads were
unusually dusty. Snow was found only a t elevations of
12,000 feet or above, whereas this year snow was in sight
a t elevations of 10,000 feet. The weather was favorable from an agricultural st#and- oint and fruit ripened nicely, though somewhat late.
ft is reported by certain orchardists that there is less s u ar in the fruit than in other years.
!'he month was a quiet month and there were few storms. The usual summer depression existed over the
I alley of the Colorado, and from August 22 to August 26 conditions were favorable for afternoon thunderstorms
in the southeastern portion of the State. There were,
however, no well-marked Sonora storms. On the other hand, none of the northern lows came south.

NOTES ON THE RIVERS OF THE SACRAMENTO AND
SAN JOAQUIN WATERSHEDS FOR AUGUST, 1011.
By N. R TAILOR, Local Forecader.
Sa cru men to wa t e rsh ed .-Th e Sa cr n inent o River fell steadily but slowly cluriiig the month, iiiicl its average
+age showed little departure from that ii~~iiilly niuiii-
tained in August. It, was, however, about 1 foot liiglier
thnn during the correspoiitliiig iiiontli of 1910. The fol-
lowing average stages honi the more important pointh
in this stream are quoted: Kennett, 0.4 foot; Ret1 Bluff,
1.3 feet; Colusa, 1.9 feet: .Knights Landing, 1 foot: and
Sacraniento city, 6.8 feet. The Aniericnn River fell rlowly, wit11 oii1-y 1 foot be-
tween the highe5t aiid lowest stages. It averaged, ut
Folsom, 2.5 feet, which is the highest for any h g u s t
since that of 1907. The rivers of the Feather-l-ul>a territory, while con- s;iclerably higher tlinn during the precedin~ August, were
practically normal. At Marysville the 1 uba nreraged
7 .i feet, which is l.G feet higher than the average of
August of 1910. The Feather, at O r o d e , averaged 1..5
feet, which is 0.7 foot above that of the ~~rececIingl4ugust. San Joaqzrin waterdtetl.-All streamr in the tlrninnge
basin of the Sail Joaquin Valley cnrried inore water than
for any August since that of 1907. This was especially so
of the San Joaquin River itself below the inoutli of the
Merced. At Lathrop the river niaiiitained :t stage of over 10 feet until the middle of the second clecaclp, and
the range at this point, between 13.S feet, on the 1st and
2.3 feet on tlie 31st, is the greatest that has ever occurred
in any summer month since records have hem kept. The average stage at Sail Jonquin bridge, near Latlirop, was
7 feet, which is 6 feet, above that of the corresponding
month in 1910. Beginning with about October 1 a new river gage
will be established on the Feather River at Nicolnus,
which is 1 mile below the moutli of tlie Bear River. and about 10 i d e s above the junction of the Feather and
Sacraniento Rivers.
REFLECTION OF FOG SIGNALS AT POINT REYES
LIGHT, CAL.
By .TAME? JONES, Ohserver. Weather Bureau.
Lying directly across the course of coastwise craft, with itms stee cliffs and jagged rocks on the south and
is one of the most clangerous points on the Pacific coast
of the Uilited States. It is shrouded in dense fog 111
days out of the year. average for 1s years, and during the months of July and August fog prevails more thnn
half the time. The average number of foggy days for August, the foggiest month, is 19.
During the year ending July 1, 1911, foe was the
cause of the American schooner Annie E. Bmale and the American steamship TaZZuc going ashore on Point
a long stretc K of sand beach on the north, Point Reyes
Reyes, and of a disastrous collision between the Ameri-
can steamshi Beaver and the Norwegian steamship
SeZju, in wllicR the latter w:is sunk off the same point. Three lives were lost in these accidents, in addition to
property worth nearly $1,000,000. From the evidence a t hand it seeins that in all of these cases the accidents
were due either to inaudibility of fog signals or to inability
to
I! a comprehensive article on *'Fog,'' in the Climatology
of California, Prof. McAdie points out the importance
of any increase in our knowledge of the dispersion and
aberration of fog signals, and the accidents previously referred to accentuate the need of experimental work
in this direction. If such work has been delayed through
underestimation of the extent of variations in audibility due to stratification of the xxtmosphere, the following
description of effects noted here may serve as an incentive
to further study of the subject.
On September 1, 1910, the fog signal a t Point Reyes
W'RS changed from a steam whistle to a compressed air
siren, the amplifying horn of which is placed so as to project the sound out over the ocean where there is a
free expanse of water wtth 110 land or rocks whatever to
interfere with the sound waves. Yet, since the installa- tion of the siren, it is not uncommon for a loud, clear
echo to be thrown back, from a fraction of a second to eight seconds after the siren sounds; showing that there
is a very effective reflecting sui-face distant from a few feet up t o about 4,400 feet from the siren.
The fact that a sharply defined boundary surface between two air columns of different temperatures will
reflect and refract sound waves is well known. Now, if the echo in uestion is due to reflection from such a surface it woul 3 indicate the proximity of a mass of air
the temperature of which differs from that in which
the fog prevails, and it is an observed fact that, so far, in every instance where tlie echo has been heard the
fog has cleared away, a t least temporarily, within a short time thereafter, though it may have continued
for days before. One of the quickest changes occurred
on August 26, 1911. Dense foe came on during the early
morning. At 4.3s g. m. the Erst echo was heard, eight
seconds after the last, which, since the sound must
travel out and back again, would locate the reflectinm
sui-face a t a distance of about 1,400 feet. The signa? continued to operate and the echo to be heard until 4.45
p. 211.. when the fog cleared away in an instant, leaving
only a few scattered patches of light fow over the ocean.
By 5.20 p. In. the fog had disappeare8 entirely.
But the main point, which it is t h e p r p o s e of these notes to emphasize and which shod be brought to the attention of mariners, is the effectiveness of these
reflecting surfaces in the free air. The echo of the
fog signal that comes back from out over the ocean is
as clear and sharp as any echo from other surfaces ever noted b the writer. The warning sounds, after
beyond the reflecting surface, be very difficult to detect.
hhsters of vessels should, therefore, approach with cau tion dangerous points a t wluch there are fog-signal
stations, and Point Reyes in particular. Too much
reliance should not be placed in the audibility of the fog signals, for, though heard a t a certain clistance
normally, they may be entirely inaudible even a t a
much shorter distance under abnormal atmospheric
conditions.
roperly locate the signals when heard.
