EXPLANATION.

The arrow files with the wind The top fig ures at station indicate minimum temperature for the days; those underneath it, if any, the amount Of rainfall of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the last twelve hours. Isobars, or solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure; isotherms, or dotted lines, equal tempera .ure. The word high means high barometrIc pressure and Is usually accompanied by fair weather; low refers to low pres sure 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 and south along the coast, rain is proba ble i; but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature rain south of Oregon is im- probable. With high" in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast. warmer weather may be expected fin summer and colder weather in winter The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result
