such a period, embracing about the

A regular storm period extends from
the 18th to the 18th, being central on
the 18th. This period, as is shown by
! the storm diagram, lies within the in
nuence of earths vernal equinox,
Hence equatorial disturbances are pos
sibe and quite probable in southern
extremes at this and following
storm periods in February. We will
name the 18th, 10th and 18th as the
| central days of storm development
On and touching these dates, low
barometer and storms of rain turning

their eastward passage across the
country. Astronomic conditions at
this time indicate that disturbances
may over-run the limits of this pc
