SYNOPSIS OF THE PAST rwES1Y.FoUR HOURS.
The high barometer which was Thursday
afternoon over New Jersey, is now over the
Bay Of Fundy. The low pressure which
was then in Arkansas now extends from
Lake Ontario to Lake Superior. Heavy
rain and snow have attended the very rapid
progress OF the centre Of low pressure. The
barometer has fallen very rapidly from
Pennsylvania to New England with high
winds from the southeast and southwest. or
middle Atlantic coast and the lower lakes.
An area of high barometer with partially
cloudy and clearing weather has advanced
northeast into the Ohio valley. The pres
sure has continued quite low on the Pacific
coast, with southwest winds, and has fallen
remarkably in Oregon where heavy rains
have prevailed.
PROBABILITIES.
TIE barometer will probably rise, with
partially cloudy and clear weather, Satur-
day, in the Southern States, and remain
low. with cloudy weather, in the Gulf
States and Texas. Falling barometer, with
with diminishing force, and westerly winds,
with partially cloudy and clearing weather,
will prevail for short time on Saturday.
The falling barometer and warm rain in
Oregon will probably move eastward, pre-.
ceded by extended cloudy and threatening
weather on Saturday north and west of the
Ohio valley.
