A Remarkable Month.

Tho Columbia State says the month
OF May was remarkable, not only fol
it's political sensations. but for ita
weather antics. Tho total precipitation
for the month was 8, 81 inches.
That stateme mt sounds worry tamo to
one not student of msteorology but it
means that tho rainfall for May, 1901;
was nearly 30 per cont. moro than fol
the same II onth for any previous year
on record.
Tho average for the month of May
for tho past l3 years has boen 2 83 in
ohes. This amount was exceeded this
May by 5 SO inches. There were six
clear days during the month, six cloudy
and 19 partly cloudy.
The most excessive prcoipi' i'a,ion fol
one day during the month Just ended
was 80 inches in "a hours, on the
20th.2lst.
The next highest monthly pre- oipita.
tion for May was SO il ches in 1894,
and 6.66 in 1883. The lowest was 0 65
in 1899 and 0 -96 in 1889
The temperature for the month just
ended was equitable, the mean for the
month being 72 degroos. The maxi.
mum point roaohed was 92 on the 81;
and tho lowest point was so on the 18th.
Oa tho 1st day of May ths.tt crmomstcr
started to work in the morning regis
tering 30 and wound up with gain OF
40 degrees in ono day.
Yesterday was like winter day in
that respect. The thermometer kept
up steady lick all day, varying but
seven degrees all day long from SO to
66. Tho mean temperature for May
for the past l3 years has boon tho Same
as for May this year.
