Isobars, or soild lines, ‘connect pon s of equal alr pressure; iso- therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The word “bigh” means high barometric pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather: ‘“low” refers o low pressure. and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudv weatherand rains. “Lows” usually Srst appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure is high in_the interior and iow along the coast, and the isobars extend norih aud south along the cosst, rain is probable: but when the “low 1s inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is improo- able. Witha “high” in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the California coest, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result. THE WEATHER BUREAU. UNIT TURE, STATES WEATHER DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL- BUREAU, BAN FRANCISCO, October 25, 1897, 5 P. 3.
