lines, connect points of equal air pressure; ao-
therms. or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word thigh" means high barometric pressure and
is usually ACCOMPANIED by fair weather; s'low'
refers TO low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.

ana low aloag the coast, and the isohars extend
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 a "high" in he vicinity of Idaho, and
the pressure falling to the California coast warmer
weather may be expected IL summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse OF these conditions
