rainfall, of melted snow in inches and hundredths
during the past twelve hours 1sobars, or solid
lines, connect points Of equal air pressure; iso-
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word 'high" means high barometric pressure and

refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded

Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When The pressure is high in the interior
ana low along the coast, and the isobars extend
north and south along the coast, rain is probable:
but when the Glow 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 to the California coast warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
