Rainfall Normal
In Noble County
3.31 Inches Fall
During December

Abnormal weather will con-
tinue for Noble county, accord
ing to Frank Burlingame, of
Sharon, official weatherman for
this community, but there are no
records being set, one way or the
other.
Burlingame said that the high
est temperature of the month
was 81 degrees and the lowest,
only eight degrees. There is
every indication, he said, that
the winter would continue to be
mild.
There has been a total of 3.31
inches of rain during the month
now coming to an end. Monday
and Tuesday of this week so
inches of rain fell. Burlingame
again said this was about normal
for December, although farmers
have been complaining about the
scarcity of water.
There was only a slight trace
of snow during December and
it is quite probable that the
month will end as it started
without a trace of snow.
The Sharon weatherman is
now working on his annual re-
port which will be released next
week. Records will then be
compared for 1949 with previous
recordings.
