Septem Der Weather.

DIR. Ira Hicks, writing from Sky View,
st. Louis, to Words md Works, makes this
prediction for September weather:
The storm period central on August 3
will give us the ina jOr part of its storms
during the three first days Of September
The month will open with high tempera
lures in all the country, except, perhaps,
the extreme West and North, from which
points storms will have moved, most likely,
and the change Of wind and temperature
will have set in behind them. Central re.
glons will get the crisis OF the heat and
storms about the LIST 10 ID, and Eastern sec
tons about the 2d to Bird. The change to
cooler will follow promptly everywhere and
dominate the weather until the return to
storm conditions on and touching the re.
dictionary 9th and 9TH. A short lived cool
squirt will follow in the wake of reactionary
storms, reaching all parts twelve to twenty.
four hours after the storms pass east of given
points
From the 10th TO the 18th of September
is always marked by abnormal electrical ex
citement. The new moon is on the morn
ing OF the 10th, and storm period is central
on the 18th. We therefore advise that all
storm Developments about the 10th to l4th
be quietly watched. 1t is apt to grow very
warm, the barometer will fluctuate, finally
falling to danger readings in many places,
and black clouds with heavy storms will
visit all parts. Cyclones are likely to de
velop in the equatorial regions, striking our
Southern coasts in their progress North and
East, and causing danger to shipping on
the Atlantic, and far inland from the Allan
tic many active storms After the elemental
battles, the gates leading to North Polar
nj hn Nd h.. a
forces OF boreas will ,h in, causing very
marked change TO co6.er. Frosts are very
apt to result in many Northern places BE
on the watch for them. The change may
suddenly drop on you on the heels OF the
first storm dash. Storms may suddenly de
velep at any time when our globe is passing
It's equinox, but the most marked disturb
ances Will appear at the regular times.
About the 18th and 18th will center change
TO warmer weather with threatening storms.
Autumnal blasts will miss no opportunity
to break in from the North after every equi.
noctial storm. BE on the the watch 10 the
North for frost.
On the 22d our equator cuts the sun,
making day and night equal everywhere,
and introducing spring TO the Southern
and autumn to the Northern hemisphere.
These great forces cannot shift 10 opposite
ehus VI ouI rushing, feSIcSS WOtlu, without
| causing many conflicts of atmosphere and
electricity. From the 2lst to 26th we sail
past the center Of our autumnal equinox.
The "Vulcan" period is central on the
23rd. Mercury is central on the 18th,
and the moon is full on the same date
These facts warrant US in warning Of dan
gerous storm possibilities, say about 22d 10
26th, inclusive. A good sized polar wave
| will spread over our deck from the North
west after the storms, overtaking their north
ern and western TANKS, and changing the
rain, possibly, into early sleet and snow.
/ Very cool weather will follow, generally,
up to the closing days Of the month"; at
which time it will grow warmer, and re-
dictionary storms will be on Ms the month
! advances.
