SOME FACTS
ON WEATHER

The mean or normal temperature
for January in Pueblo WAS 20 degrees.
while the precipitation was only 40
degrees, being less than one half an
inch
1t is this dryness which makes the
weather seem much warmer than it
really is, for while the mean temper
ature WINS degrees below freezing
point the weather was very pleasant
n the daytime and not very cold at
night, the absence Of moisture making
great difference.
For he month Of December. 1903
Just ended, the local weather bureau
gives some very interesting data
For the single month there were %
all clear days and 8 partly CLOUDY
laws, there being no totally cloudy
1ays at all This is common in Colo
ado but would be regarded in the
East as something phenomenal,
The total amount of moisture for
December last was only four hun
iredths of an inch and the mean tenn
oerature was 81, which shows that
December was not at all wintry,
