Washington, ID. c., July 5.-Last
bulletin gave forecasts of disturbance
to cross continent July 8 to a, warm
wave 8 to Is. Cool wave II to 16.
This will bring the hottest weather
of July. 1t will be the last of the
dangerous storms that belong to the
first great storm period of July that
has been timed for first half of July.
The destructive storms of this period
began earlier than expected and are
said to have destroyed property in
southeastern and northeastern states
valued at between one and two mil
lion dollars. Our danger signals hang
out for the great storm TO cross con.
tinent near July 10 to II.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about July IA, cross Pacific
slope by close of Il, great central
valleys 16 to IS, eastern sections 20.
Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about July II, great central valleys
16, eastern sections Is. Cool wave
will cross Pacific slope about July II,
great central valleys 10, eastern see
tons 81.
This will be a moderate disturbance
after it passes east OF meridian 30
but west of that line its force is So
Uncertain that it should b. WATCHED
Off our northwestern coast that storm
will be of greater than usual force
and our storm signals will hang out
for all along the Alaskan and Colum
bian coasts. Good time for shirpine
interests within 500 miles of S,tka to
keep their weather eye open toward
the west.
About July s to II it will be just
as safe on land as to be on the steam
ship route from New York to Liver
pool. You will enjoy the trip fully as
much if you start a little later and h,
steamship companies will have better
regulations as means for pleasure
trips. The same will apply to the
Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean sea and
our southeastern coasts. Look out for
a hurricane down there.
Our early advice to producers o.
and dealers in, grain and cotton has
been of immense value. Those who
adopted that advice as their guide arc
immensely well pleased In the South
they have held from 100 to 1000 bales
of cotton since it was selling a little
above s cents and their profits arc
now about $50 a bale. Others have
held their oats since the price was
80 cents and have profted 10 cents
a bushel, or 500, on each 1000 bush.
els That is more than 80 per cent
profit in three months. This Illus
trates the great value OF long range
weather forecasts. The producer, the
dealer and the consumer who have
been governed by our weather calcul
ations have had great advantages
over those who do not profit by such
information.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about July 49, cross Pacific slope |
by close of 10, great central valleys |
On To 30 ooctorn co,tiono 30 Ny,,,,, |
wave will cross Pacific slope about
July Is, great central valleys 20, east
ern sections %. Cool wave will cross |
Pacific slope about July 81, great cen
trail valleys 20, eastern sections %.
Temperatures of this disturbance
will average about normal but will go |
up to high and down to low degrees,
very warm as the disturbance comes
in and very cool after it has passed
A very great fall in temperatures |
from near July - to near July 90.
Great extremes of rainfall are ex-
pected for July, particularly in the
great central valleys; severe drouths
in some places and too much rain in
others 1t is not >zpected to be a
good crop weather month as gen
eral average but some places will get
the lucky normal rainfall. Normal is
the average of many years and norm.
al temperatures and rainfall are al.
Jupiter and Mars will have much to
do with July weather The former
may be seen in the south at midnight
and the latter will be morning star,
rising a little before Venus Mars is
the red or war planet and Venus is Of
a soft, silvery color
