Explanation.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
et station indicate maximum Temperature for the
days; those underneath it. If any, the amount Of
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid
lines, connect poin OF equal sir pressure; iso-
theTms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "high" means high barometric pressure and
is usually accom- panied by fair weather: '1ow'
refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.
"Lows" ust ally first appear the Washington
coast. When the pressure is high in the interior
and low along the coast, and the isobars 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 "high' in The vicinity of Idaho, and
the pressure falling the California coast warmer
weather may be expected IN summer and colder
weather in winter. The reverse Of these conditions
VIII produce an opposite result.
