SEVERE STORM.

Yesterday forenoon, between 10 and 11 o'clock,
London was visited by a severe storm. The wind,
which during the previous night had been exceed-
ingly variable, early in the forenoon settled into a
strong gale from the south-west. The sky became
suddenly overcast, loud peals of thunder followed,
and a deluge of rain and hail fell. In some parts of
I.oncion Lue .Lreetts were flooded to the depth of
about a foot. The violence of the wind was very
great. Few casualties are, however, reported. In
the public parks considerable injury has been done
to the trees, and in the river several barges and
small boats have been driven from their moorings
and injured by coming into collision with each
other. The storm was most violent on the Surrey
side of the Thames, where many skylights and win-
dows were broken by the violence with which the
large hailstones were driven against them. Along
Bankside, Southwark, Lambeth, and Bermondsey a
great amount of mischief was done to the cellar
stock of ♦arious publicans. The rain entered a
newly erected building in Lombard-street, and
slaked a quantity of lime. The heat so produced
set the house on fire. The engines of the brigade
however, were quickly in attendance, and the flames
were speedily extinguished. The western districts
of London were less exposed to the storm than the
south-western. At Notting-hill the inhabitants
were ignorait of the fact that a violent storm had
been raging in other parts of the metropolis.

CHATHAM, Nov, 10.
Shortly before noon to-day the town and neigh-
bourhood were visited by a perfect hurricane of
wind, hail, and rain, accompanied by several loud
peals of thunder and extremely vivid lightning.
For nearly half an hour the rain descended in im-
mense sheets of water, more resembling the fearful
storms of tropical climates than anything usually
experienced in these latitudes, quickly flooding
most of the streets and lanes in various parts of the
town, and in the neighbouring city of Rochester.
The wind during the time raged with fearful vio-
lence ; but beyond the inconvenience resulting from
the great fall of rain, no damage to property has been
reported. The barometer during the day has been
at 28.85, and this evening is still falling. All the
vessels in the harbour have rode out the gale in
safety, most of them having an extra anchor down.

PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY, 6 P.M.
We have had a heavy gale of wind here during
the past 18 hours from the south-west, accompanied
during the fore part of the time with thunder and
lightning, hail, and tremendous rain squalls. The

two preceding days had been unusually fine for the
time of year, yesterday especially so, with a bright
warm sun, the glass on both days, however, being
low, on Friday the barometer marking 29.35 and the
thermometer 40 at 9 a.m. ; and yesterday,' at the
same hour, the barometer being at 29.47 and
the thermometer again as law as 40. At 6 p.m.
yesterday the barometer had risen to 29 67,
the night being, like the day had been, remark-
ably fine. No. 14 pilot-boat of this port, which
returned early this morning from the Channel,
reports that up to sunset yesterday the weather

hthaed
set the wind came •
suddenly in light puffs from
various points of the compass, with a great deal of
lightning in the
western sky. From this time the
wind gradually got up, and by 11 p.m. the pilot-
boat, under canvass reduced as low as possible, was
running for port before a strong gale, which kept
on increasing until about 4 a.m., when it ap-
peared to have reached its extreme point here, at
which it remained untill about 10 a.m., when the
rain partially ceased, and the storm broke, trending
away to the north-west, and moving thence in a
semicircular direction, over the Isle of Wight, by
the south round to the east, and where it was evi-
dent the storm was expending its strength in a
manner fully equal to anything that had been ex-
perienced here. At noon a slight thunderstorm
separated itself from the main body and passed over
here, but was of no strength compared with those
preceding, the glass giving indications of rising and
the atmosphere becoming clearer, but the wind still
continuing very strong from the same quarter. At
sunset the wind had got in to N.N.W. more mode-
rate, with the barometer risen a tenth and the ther-
mometer at 53 deg., but the weather still looking
wild and threatening.
