The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
OF 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, or solid
lines connect poin's of equal air pressure; isO-
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "high" means high harometric pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather; slow"
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
and low along the coast, and the isobars extend
north and south along the coast rain is probable;
but when the ''ow' Is inclosed with isobars of
marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is improb-
able. With a thigh" in the vicinity of Idaho, and
the pressure falling to the California coast,
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse of these conditions
