Thus Hendersonyille S winter days are not
only much warmer than those Of New York
or Chieago, but are also not much colder
than those Of tlanta or Memphis.
The precip itation is abundant and well dis.
tributed throughout the year. The annual
total averages a little more than go inches
which IS slightly above the average for the
state as whole. It is, however, by no
means excessive and could not be much re-
duced without causing injury to the crops.
Il should be noticed that this precipitation
does not indicate a prevalence of cloudy
weather. On the contrary, this climate is
marked by large amount of sunshine.
North Carolina is a part Of the .ssunny
south,,.' and the number of cloudy days in
the year in Hendersonville is from 20 to 50
Ter cent. less than the average for the state.
This is very good showing.
Thus Hendersonville affords the unusual
combination Of abundant rainfall and high
percentage Of sunshine. As a general rule.
the rains here are heavy and Of short dura-
ton. Drizzly weather is rare and fops
are almost unknown.
Records of storms and other periods Of
severe meteorological conditions show that
cur climate is always temperate in compari-
son with that of places north, south, east and
west of us. The severity of seorching sum-
mer is unknown here; the warmest days
bring no i'll effects in their train Sun
strokes do not occur here; cyclones and tor
nadoes do not visit us. We have cold spells
IN winter, but they are Of short duration and
their severity is less than in many places
which have higher annual temperature.
The average latitude of Tennessee is about
the same as the latitude of Hendersonville.
The normal January temperature Of Tennes-
sect derived from the records of fifty or sixty
stations whose average altitude is about 1900
feet less than the altitude Of Hendersonville)
is exactly the same as Hendersonville's Jan
Iary normal. Mountains to the west and
northwest of us protect us from the severity
ct the cold waves.
In summer, moderately warm days and de-
Eghtful cool nights; in winter, cold nights
which purify the atmosphere, and abundance
of bright sunny days; spring weather which
is mild without being enervating; autumn
weather which is the finest tonic ever known;
this is summary of Hendersonvi1le' cli-
mate. Proof Of this is obtainable not only
from statistics but also from experience
There are numbers of persons who have come
here sick and regained their health. Some
OF them have gone back to their former
homes to resume their former occupations
with renewed strength and grateful remem-
brance of the benefits derived here; while
others have decided to stay with us and
make this their permanent home.
