Weather Saws Prophet Hicks.

Weather Says Prophet Hicks.
The next regular storm period is CEN
trail on the 18th, extending from the 9th
to 18th. AS early as the 9th it will turn
warmer and the barometer will begin
falling in western extremes. BY the
18th these conditions will have fully
developed and general rains will appear,
with probable lightning and thunder
southwark. A decidedly low barometer
will attend these disturbances, and high
winter gales will come out of the west
and north, turning into heavy, drifting
snow and billiards. on and touching the
18th, 18th and 18th. OF course these
storms will be progressive from west to
east and southward--tirstw warmer, with
general rains, turning to colder, with
snow, rising barometer and high gales,
ending in general cold wave. Heavy
Atlantic coast gales will come in from
east and northeast, to meet the low
barometic pressures advancing from the
west during the progress Of this period.
A reactionary storm period is central
on the 10th, 18th and 18th, during which
days general cloudiness and threaten
ing weather conditions will prevail. A
Mercury perturbation begins in this
reactionary period, which will tend to
prolong threatening conditions into the
regular storm period running from the
10th to the 25th. Change to high ba-
rometer west winds and cold may fol-
low on and touching the 18th and 10Th,
but such will be of short duration and
attended by more or less storminess,
snow and sleet.
Perhaps the most general and severe
disturbances of the month will occur in
the regular storm period, which is cen
trail on the 22nd, together with the
center of the Mercury period. Look at
the storm diagram and study it's bearing
on this period, as explained in our al
manac. This storm period will be char
acterized by one of the most depressed
barometric waves of the whole month,
or perhaps the whole winter. Thick
and prolonged cloudiness will prevail,
rains will visit most parts of the coun-
try, but heavy and general sleet and
snow may be counted on from Saturday
the 21st to Wednesday the 18th. Any
sane person will understand that all
these phenomena are not to be expected
all over the continent through all these
days, but that such will pass over the
country from west to east progressively
during these days. Pay no attention to
snivering, unreasoning critics, but
watch the storm and weather for your
self.
The 2Sth and Doth are central days for
q req stionary disturbance en- and and touch
ing which dates may be expected re-
turn of storm conditions falling barom-
eter, rising temperature, growing cloud
mess, ending in areas of rain and snow
passing eastwardly across the country.
High barometer and much colder
weather will rush in behind the storms,
and spread over the country during the
closing days of the month.
