The Rev. Irl R. Hicks says that
about the Sd of May we may expect
threatening storms of thunder, wind and
rain. If warm, humid weather sets in
about the 7th with winds from the north
and east, look out for cycle of daily or
twenty four hour storms. A reactionary
storm period is central on 14th and 18th
with violent elimination on the 18th.
Very cool nights with frosts in the north
ern sections will most likely follow.
Another storm period is listed for the
three days, 21st, 22d and 23d. If the
whole amount of rainfall for the month
could be evenly distributed over the
country it would not be sufficient to fur
nish vegetation with the needed moist
ure.
