Weather Forecast "In msking a forecast for the Pac ific Cosst for the winter and sesson of 1913-1914, based upon the theory that the summer makes the winter, or, in other words, two succeeding cool sum mers were followed by two succeeding dry winters, we may expect a de ficiency of precipitation up to mid winter, probably to February 1st, after which we may count upon abund ant rain fall in the late winter months."
