KICKS FORECAST FOR SEP
TEMPER.


The earth having already entered |
the period of the autumnal equinox,
the moon being full and on the celes- |
tial equator the last day of August,
aud center of Mercury's equinoctiai |
pertubations falling on the 3rd, within |
a regular storm period, 1t will be nat
ural TO expect marked storm conditions
from the Isl 10 4ih. The period VIII
begin with low barume'ric readings
in western sections. high temperature
and winds easterly an'i s'u'herly.
While the storm areas are advancing
! from western extremes, fair. warm
weather will prevail in central and
eastern sections, but the storm ceniefs
progress steadily eastward, and by the
5th all sections will have had more or
less storm or storminess, or will have
| felt the changes OF barometer aud
temperature consequent upon inc pas
sage of general storms. Marked equi-
poctial disturbances will most likely
appear along the southern coasts a.
this time. in which event o rapid ana
general high barometer will follow
disturbances inland from the north
west, causing cool northeriy winds
over most of the country until the
southern disturbances pass to the
north Atlantic. From about the 9Th
TO the 10Th, general reaction OF the
elements to storm conditions Will be
the order. "Storm conditions" are not
always attended by acual storms-a
!; fact wouid-be critics do not UNDER
stand. But general storms and other
: elemental pertubations never transpire
unless preceded by the changes in at
> mospheric pressure, wind currents
Temperature which GO to make up
what are meteorologically known as
1 storm conditions. Change to cooler,
$ westerly winds and higher barometer

. rule. dominate the weather, for the
most part, for several days between
Q the regular storm periods.
!. The next regular storm period 10
l central on the 14ih, extending from
tina 18th TO 10Th. Watch reports of
n barometer aud thermometer closely at
!. this time, aud see if warmth does not
: increase and the barometer does not
!. fall in western sections early IN this
f period; see if these conditions do not
t. spread eastward from day to day, and
:. if they are not followed by growing
!. cioudiuess and finally by storms Of
rain, wind and thunder i'll most parts
j. on aud toulhing the days embraced IL

J. ally. that the barometer will not rise
