WEATHER FOR NOVEMBER
Some Storms r Predicted by Hicks,
Although There is Nothing
Very severe.

For November Rev. Irl Hicks hands
out some Of he !oldtime weather for
that mouth. although there is MOTH
ing very severe in what will lie forth
coming.
BY the lst storm conditions will be
organized in the west. and the cloud
areas and low barometer will advance
eastwardly across the country, caus-
ing higher temperature, rain and
possibly thunder storms in many sec
tions on the 1st, End and 3rd. Rain
and high temperature will give way
to rising barometer with possibly
gusts of snow, westerly winds and
much colder on the western edge OF
the storm centers. Some sharp days
of cold and frost to the northward
Will follow this and other November
storm periods, calling for a degree of
planning and care for the highest
convenience and comfort of man and
beast.
About the 5th, 9th and 18th look
for noticeable rise in temperature,
falling barometer and return OF gen.
eral storm conditions. Rains turn
ing to snow in the north, will visit
most sections Of the country, in their
eastward march about the 5th to 9Th.
A marked change to high barometer
and colder will follow the storms,
spreading to the east and south about
the 7th to 9th inclusive.
The Vulcan storm period. extending
from the 10th to the 18th, is central
on the 18th and the Mercury period,
extending from the 7th to the 10th,
is central on the 18th, hence the
combined perturbations of these two
forces will be felt during the Vulcan
period. Moon is in perigee on the
10th, at last quarter on the 11th, and
on the celestial equator, going south
ward, on the 18th. About the 18th
to 18TH may reasonably be expected
one of the most general and active
storm centers of the month. AS early
as the 10th the barometer will be
falling in the west. Change to warm
er will attend the falling barometer
and during the 18th to 18th these
conditions will pass over the country,
moving eastward, bringing rain and
snow storms to most parts of the
country. Those who are familiar
with our forecasts will not be sur
prised to see heavy sleet in many
places, especially northward, during
the passage of these storms. A very
decided dash Of early winter will
bring up the real of these storms,
giving several cold days and frosty
nights to most parts before the en-
trance of the next storm period.
A reactionaly storm period is cen
trail from the 18th to the Goth, having
the new Moon, or Moon in ~conjunc-
tion with Earth and Sun, on the
10th. This period will bring return
of rising temperature, falling baroln-
eter and wide areas Of cloudiness,
rain and snow. The elimination OF
these distul Dances will fall on and
next to the 18th: ;'''
A regular storm period is central on
the oath, covering with its influence
the 22nd to the 9th. AS a{rnfe, the
first two or three days of the growing.
regular storm periods are fair and
growing warmer, with falling barom-
eter, and easterly to southerly winds.
Then follow cloudiness. storm and
precipitation, progressively from west
to east. Behind the area of high tenn
perature and rain, rising barometer,
snow and cold west winds follow, ali
ending in cold, clear weather. This
order Of phenomena will t%ranspire
about the 22nd to 26th, but the cold.
fair weather following the storms
will be of short duration.
