/ HICKS FOR FEBRUARY
weather sharp says the Month Win be
Bad Iva This section.

February, according to prognosti-
Gator lrl r. Hicks, will go FROM bad
to good, opening rough and closing
well. On the first of the month Hicks
says storm areas will begin to form
over the western parts of the country
ard wide areas Of ram and sleet will
pass eastwardly across the country.
Ordinarily cold wave and blizzard
would appear before the 4th. but the
moon does not pass the celestial equa-
tor until the 4th, hence the storms of
this period may not reach blizza deus
proportions until after that date.
If heavy snow and sleet storms do
not appear during the first four days
of the month, such storms will almost
certainly develop about the 9th TO the
9th. But the chances for marked
winter storms on and near the first
day OF the month are many. Al least
one severe cold wave may be counted
on. Two are quite probable, one not
far from the LIST, and another on and
about the 18th and Sth.
The third storm period is central on
the 18th and reaches from the 10th TO
the 10th.
The las' regular storm period for
February is central OH the cath, The
first stages of this period will bring

In the western extemes. reactions to

meter will be falling preparatory for
