probably continue to move nOrtheastward
over Canada; the winds on the lower lakes
will very generally veer to the north west
with falling temperature and northeast
winds. and will veer to the southwest
throughout the Atlantic States. Clearing
weather, with a falling temperature, will
prevail on Wednesday south and west of
Pennsylvania. An area of high barometer,
with cold and pleasant weather, will pre-
vail in the upper Mississippi valley and the
westward, followed by falling barometer
and threatening weather on Wednesday
night Dangerous winds are not anticipated
for Tuesday night on the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts.
