WEATHER CONDITIONS DURING LAST
YEAR.
The year 1900 has been marked by
wea ther conditions which were greatly
at variance, in several of the elements,
from those generally recorded in this
state. 1t opened mild and without
the severe storms usual at that season.
This was succeeded by period of con-
tinued cold weather, with the average
temperature considerably below the
normal, and precipitation generally in
excess, which extended through May
These conditions resulted in back
ward spring which delayed farming
operations June was practically nor
NAL and very pleasant month. 4
severe and general drought, which had
it's beginnings in July, continued
through September. The temperature
during this period was above the nor
NAL. The abnOrmally warm weather
continued through October and No
vember, being about six degrees above
the normal. This long, dry, hot peri
cd was disastrous to most crops. The
weather, summed up as whole, was
unfavorable to agricultural and COM
meIcial interests and has seldom been
parallelled in the official records of the
New England weather service. f. N.
Hawley, voluntary observer.
