The fore part OF the week was
generally clear. During this period
the temperatures throughout the
day we're unseasonably high, espee-
ial'y over the eastern counties
though the temperature at night did
not vary much from the normal. on
Thursday, however, there was de-
cided change to cloudy and unsea'
sonably cool weather. which contin'
ned for the remainder Of the week.
Frequent light showers occurred
during this latter period, accom-
panied in many localities by hail and
high winds. Light TO heavy FROST
