Explanation,

The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
et station indicate maximum temperature for tn
ssys; those underneath it, If any, the amount Of
rainfall, Of melted snow in inches and hund red
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid
lines, connect points of equal air pressure; iso-
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word thigh" means high barometric pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather: Glow"
refers TO low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied. by cloudy weather and rains.
"Lows' usually first appear on the Washington
cosst When the pressure is high in the interior
and low along the coast and the isobsrs extend
north and south along the coast rain is probable:
but when the "low'' is inclosed with sobars OF
marked curvature, rain south OF Oregon is improb-
able. With a "high" in the vicinity of Idaho and
the pressure falling to the California coast warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse Of these conditions
Will produce opposite result
