The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
at station indicate maximum temperature for the
days: those underneath it, If any, the amount OF
rainfall, of melted snow in inches and hundredths
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, solid
lines, connect poin of equal air pressure iso-
therns dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "htgh" means high barometrc pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather: dow
refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.
Lows Usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When the pressure IS high in the interior
north and south along the coast, rain is probable;
but when the "low'' is inclosed with isobars of
marked curvature rain south of Oregon is improb
able. With ''high'' in he vicinity of Idaho, and
the pressure falling to the California warmer
weather maybe expected IN summer and colder
weather in winter: The reverse OF these conditions
WILL produce an opposite result
