Hicks Weather Forecasts for July
we publish below from Word and Works the
Hicks weather forecasts for the present month ::
:, "A reactionary storm period is central on
the 4th, 9th and 9th. The storm period cen.
tral on June 10Th will last into the LIST and I'd
OF July; storms of that period, however, will
nave worked past the central parts of the
country by July LIST, followed from the west
Dy rising barometer and change to somewhat
cooler: On and touching the 4th, 9Th and 9Th
look for reaction to falling barometer and
cnange to much warmer. Cloudiness, rain
and thunder storms will visit many localities
on and next to the 9Th and 9th, as low barome.
I 1rlc areas pass eastwardly over the country.
touching the 9Th. AS these storms pass on to
the east rising barometer and change to cooler
Will follow closely from the west.
"A regular storm period reaches from the
9Th to the 18th. embracing the full moon at
greatest south declination on the 18th. By the
lUth decided fall of the barometer will be
noted in western sections, attended by warm
wave of marked intensity. From about Fri
Gay, 10th, to Monday, 18th, coming to q crisis
on and touching the 18th, look for black,
threatening storm clouds, with rain, thunder
and high winds. We fear that the rainfall at
this and other July periods will not be in pro-
portion to the severity and threatening appear
ances of the storms. Waterspouts and cloud
bursts will visit some localities, but other and
much wider sections will suffer for want Of
rain. Taking period of five to six days, with
July the 18th as the center, seismic disturb
ances are more than probable in many quar-
tiers OF the globe, especially in regions on and
south of the equator. Brief change to some
what cooler will be natural from about the
18th to 18TH
the 18th and 18th. During this period look for
q reaction to much warmer, with falling ba-
rometer and return of cloudiness and scatter
ing light rains.
A regular storm period is central, coinci.
dent with the center the Mercury period, the
regular storm period extending from the 10th
to the oath, and the Mercury period from the
10th to the 18th. About the Goth the barome-
fer will begin to fall in western parts of the
country, with rapidly rising temperature, fol.
lowed by general cloudiness. During the 2lst
to 24th threatening storm clouds and much Sc
we're bluster will be very natural. This period
is also one of the most favorable times for rain
during this month. AS rule the Mercury
periods bring much continued cloudiness, with
drizzling rain, but some of the heaviest storms
and rainialls frequently occur at the blending
of regular storm periods directly with the Mer-
curry periods. Such results are possible at this
period, but we fear that rains will not be gen.
orally difused and copious. Narrow localities
may have deluging downpours, but the grain
belts, and other wide areas of the country,
while they may have ugly storm clouds, thun-
der and high winds, will most likely suffer
shortage in rainfall. A change to cooler, more
pleasant conditions may reasonably be expec-
ted from about the Oath to the 9th.
"a reactionary storm period is central on the
9th, 18th and 9th. 1t is possible that change
to cooler may not appear generally from the
18th to 9th, following the previous period, in
which event the temperature will continue to
increase, eliminating in one of the most in
tense hot waves of the summer, counting
three days before and after Tuesday, 28th.
Thunder storms of great strength and bluster
will be due on and near the 28th. The indica-
tions are that heated term will break down,
letting in a respite of some days of more pleas
ant weather, as we pass from July into August"
