Monthly meteorological notes for
October, as compiled by W. J. Hutch
ison, local meteorologist, show a
month of mostly overcast skies and
unsettled vettber with scattered
light showers during the opening
week and again at the close and a
period of quite heavy rainfall from
the 20th to 33rd.
Mllcl and generally seasonable tem
perature prevailed, except for a short
warm period through the 9th and
10th, when maximums registered 90
and 93 degrees consecutively, the 93
degrees on the loth being the highest
for the month. Dally mlntmums aver
aged near normal or slightly higher
as a rule except for occasional nights
In mid-month with near freezing
temperatures and a monthly low
minimum of 28 degrees on the 18th.
A heavy frost was observed In the
early morning of the 13th and a
killing frost on the 16th termi
nated the growing- season for the
year.
Light rains during the first week
were freshening, but not of sufficient
quantity to be of material benefit
to agriculture. Heavier rains begin
ning the 20th and continuing Inter
mittently through the 33rd supplied
an abundance of soil moisture. Plow
ing, which had been delayed duo to
extremely dry soil, was aided con
siderably by these rains. Reports In
dicated the rainfall adequate to
moisten the ground to an average
depth of from 8 to 8 Inches. Showery
weather again prevailed at the close
of October. Precipitation totaled 2.48
Inches and exceeded the normal by
1.14 inches. The rainfall season also
showed an excess of 0.93 Inches.
Cloudiness averaged a higher fre
quency than Is usual for October.
Eight days were characterized as clear
and the balance as overcast or partly
cloudy. Morning fogs formed In the
valley on the 26th and 27th, but
were rapidly dissipated before mid
morning. Solar and lunar haloa were
occasionally visible and at times ap
peared fairly brilliant.
Wind velocities averaged somewhat
higher than the normal October
movement. A total of 4187 mtlea
passed over the station at an average
speed of B.6 miles per hour. Heavy
winds accompanying the rain storm
of the 21st attained a velocity 01
36 miles per hour, a maximum ve
locity for the month. Prevailing
winds were mainly from the north
west.
