HOW THE WEATHER BUREAU
FORECASTS STORMS AND
FROSTS


Many people have an idea that there
is something mysterious and occult
about the work of the government
weather bureau in forecasting the com
ing of storms, frosts and floods. Not a
few think that the observers must nee
essarily get their data by reading the
planets, the stars and the moon. AS a
matter of fact the forecaster of the
bureau foretells the coming of disturb
ances in businesslike way, very SINH
lar to that in which a man who has
ordered shipment of goods would esti-
mate the date of its arrival.
Suppose business man had ordered
carload of pineapples from the
Hawaiian Islands. He would know the
average time it would take the steamer
to make the trip to the Pacific port, the
average time for unloading and loading
into refrigerator cars, and the average
number of days to be allowed these cars
for their trip across the continent to
New York. His estimate, however,
would be subject to error because the
steamship might be delayed by fog, or
the cars might meet with an accident.
Storms, like pineapples, as rule do
not originate in the United States.
They come to us, some from the Philip
pines, Japan, Siberia, Alaska, Canada
or the Gulf of Mexico The weather
bureau gets cable, telegraphic or wire
less notice of a foreign storm. Station
after station, or vessel after vessel
reports the storm 5 arrival in its neigh
borhood, 50 that the general direction
and rate of progress can be determined
very early. In fact, the arrival Of
some storms can be foretold ten DAYS in
advance
The forecasters watch for the region
of low barometer which is the storm
center around which the winds blow.
This whrl or eddy moves bodily for
ward with the general eastward drift of
about $50 miles day in our ATTITUDES.
AS the lines of equal pressure around
the low center crowd closer together,
the winds attending the storm increase
in force. The forecaster determines
the direction of movement of the storm
and its velocity.
| When weather disturbances are re-
ported, the forecasters know from ex-
perience about how long it takes them
to reach our Pacific coast, and then how
long after they will reach the Atlantic
coast. For example, if storm coming
from Siberia drifts eastward around the
North Pole and reappears in Alaska, it
should appear in Washington and Ore
gon in about two days; should get to
the Great Lakes in six days and to the
Atlantic coast in seven or eight days.
Unexpected conditions may delay
storms or divert them from the straight
track just as a refrigerator car may be
thrown off its schedule or be shipped by
accident on a wrong road. Some of
these storms deplete themselves by
running into regions of high barometer
which are of greater magnitude and
extent than the storm itself Some of
them, however, travel completely around
the world.
To keep tab on cold waves that come
into the United States from Canada and
Alaska, the weather bureau studies the
Canadian weather reports. England
sends reports from Iceland, the British
Islands and Continental Europe. and
daily reports come from ST. Petersburg
on the conditions in Russia and Siberia.

YM G a. Social and Banquel.

Last night the Y. M. C. A., of Ducktown
celebrated its third anniversary with an
elaborate social and banquet that loudly
bespoke the progress made since its In
ception.
Every preparation was made for the en-
tertainment of guests and that everybody
enjoyed themselves goes without saying.
The officers and board of directors had
labored hard to make the function sue
cess and the praise accorded them upon all
sides must have been very gratifying to
them.
The speakers we're in fine trim, and the
music good, the banquet all that could be
asked and general satisfaction with all ar
rangements was heard on all sides.
Lack of time and space forbids us giving
more extended account of it, but next
week we will try to do it justice.
Following is the programme and menu
and those will tell better than words the
treat that was prepared by the association
for its members and guests:
