FOSTERS WEATHER BULLETIN

-. VI Sos ASooS
bulletin gave forecasts of disturbances
to cross continent June 20 to July 2
and July to 8; warm waves June 2S
to July and July 3 10 Z; cool waves
June 80 to July 4 and July to 10.
These two disturbances will cover one
OF the most severe storm periods OF
the year but we can not now point
out the locations where these danger.
GUS storms will strike. We have
made good progress in our efforts to
work out q method of locating all
weather events but We are not quite
far enough along to risk forecast of
locations. This is our last warning
of this dangerous storm period and all
We can do is to advise all to be on
the alert from July to ~.
We are expecting low, or storm
center, to cross the continent, from
the Pacific to the Atlantic, from July
to s and another from June 2S to
July 2, and every one should watch
the location of these storm centers.
The dangerous parts of the storms
will all the time be from one to five
hundred miles southeast OF the CEN
ter of the lows.
II the hurricane, as is expected, or
ganizes eastward of the Windward
islands near July 4 then all who are
interested in such storms on the
Caribbean sea and Gulf of Mexico
will need to watch that hurricane for
ten days as it will require that long
before it leaves our coasts. In case
the hurricane organizes then our mid
die northwest should expect an I'M
usually low temperature cool wave,
possibly going to the frost line in the
Iextreme northwest.
Should tornadoes occur with this
disturbance they may be expected in
the Mississippi valleys between 40 and
As of north ATTITUDES. Tornadoes
usually come from the southwest and
move toward the northeast and they |
usually occur in the southeast quad |
rant of the low. To get out of the |
path Of the tornado one should, as a |
rule, move northwest or southeast. |
Excessively heavy rains, cloudbursts |
and hail indicate tornado forces. If |
we had control of these storms we
would have them strike some sandy |
desert
The last disturbance of this great |
storm period will reach the Pacific |
coast about July 3, cross the Pacific |
slope by the close of the 10th, great |
central valleys 18th to 18th, eastern
sections the 14th. Warm wave will |
cross Pacific slope about July 8, great |
central valleys 18th, eastern sections |
18th. Cool wave will cross Pacific |
slope about July 18th, great central
valleys 14th, eastern sections 10Th.
Previous remarks will apply to this
disturbance till about the time it
crosses meridian 80 on July u. After
that the storm forces are expected to
weaken and be less dangerous. The
five days centering on that disturb
ance are expected to average the
highest temperatures of the summer.
The week centering on July 16 will
be the week of least danger
from storms but the month of July
Will probably make a record of ex-
tremes for radical weather events
Some very heavy rains are expected
and some unusually severe drouths
but these are so mixed up that we can
not locate them.
Our advice to producers is not to
sell oats nor cotton. Corn and wheat
are guesses, but if We had them in
we would keep them. The
spring wheat crop will determine
prices Of wheat
The next dangerous storm period
will cover July 20 to 80. 1t is not
reckoned as great compared with the
most dangerous storms of the year but
10 risks should be taken during those
eleven days.
Many thanks to generous friends of
ny weather work who pressed my |
'ame for consideration for appoint
nent as chief of u S. weather bu-
eau. For ample reasons I notified
he secretary of agriculture that l
would not permit further use of my
lame in that connection.
