However, those who enjoy the outdoors had only six days during the month with | 50 percent or more sunshine and no days with 100 percent. There were only three days on which no pre- cipitation was recorded, three days with temperatures of above, and three days than one-half of covered with clouds Precipitation was light on most days with the exception of .65 inch on the 5th and 1.23 inches on the 10th and 11th Maximum wind five-minute period were 23 more per hour on four days and the average hourly velocity for the month was 7.1 miles per hour with a prevailing direction from the north Comparative Data—August during which the sky was less velocities for a 25 miles or City Office Airport E.or N.

Among other things he can no longer turn on his radio or pick up his newspaper and hear or read about the weather with so many others, the weather man has gone to wa hold for a period of time most of the current weather information which we would like to know Pending the time when your fav- orite current weather problems can be answered, a review of how the weather is measured will be Each of us ask ho today or how cold was it last night? The recording of the warmth of the air in which we live is made from tested thermometers. These ther- mometers are placed in a wooden box-like shelter. This shelter has a pass between the upper and lower rbofs. This air space provides in- sulation and prevents heating of the lower roofing material by the direct of the sun. On all foun sides there are narrow slats inclined in such a way to prevent the sun's rays from entering between the 'cracks. However, the air moves freely between the slats. and temperature of the air as it flows through the shelter is recorded on the thermometers within. e r oo e 0 o o ° of [ WEATHER REPORT . . — . e U.
