passed to the northward of the Azores on
the l4th, the storm tracks were north of
the 10th parallel and west of the 35th
meridian East of this meridian strong
easterly and southeasterly winds pre-
vailed generally. These were caused by
an area of high pressure to the north and
northwest Of the British Isles from the
5th to the 18th.

On Nov. another depression moved

easterly across Ireland and Scotland, and
on the fifth curved to the southwark
again in the North Sea. This was the de-

coast.
The photographic Bureaus forecast
for December is as follows: Frequent
storm areas moving from the east coast of
the United States toward or to the north
ward of the British Isles. These areas
are followed by strong WHY and NWly
gales that are felt as far south as Bermuda
and the Azores. In the central part of
the ocean, between latitude % N and
latitude 40' N, occasional gales. Some
Occasional northers in the Gulf of Mex
