C The North Pacific Pilot Chart for April will | show an almost permanent high, with s cen- | ter about midway between the Hawalian Is- lands and the coast of California, but a little farther north than during March. The NE trade wind belt will be found slightly widened with the southern limit remaining about the same, while the. northern limit has moved farther north than its position last montl. The general movement of the wind will be found around this high, with the sun, and in that ortion of the ocean east of the Hawalian Is- ands the wind_may be expected to be gener- ally from the NE, while to the westward of them. the wind will frequently be easterly. Near the coast, within tne - northeast trade | wind limits, fnstead of northeasterly ~winds, northerly and nortawesterly winds may be ex- pected. = It should be remembered that the trade wind limits marked on the chart are only the average ones for the month of April, and vessels may find a slight diviation from them, and may frequently pass from one trade to another without any pericd of calms or dol- drums. The NE trades may be expected to Dlow with an average fosce of 4 to & (Beaufort scale). Just south of the Gulf of Alaska will be found the center of an almost permanent low of considerable depth, and between this low and the high will be found a general movement ? the atmosphere from the west toward the A.erican eoast, and in tnis locality strong Westerly and southwesterly winds may be ex- pected.. North -of the fortieth parallel fre- Quent gales, often accompanied by hail and snow squalls, may be expected. Frequent gales may be expected in that part of the ocean In | the’ vicinity of the Juan de Fuca Straits, al- though the average point of entry on the American coast storms ~-om the west is situa- ted farther north tban during last month. Fre- quent squails may be expected in the vicinity of the Hawaifan Islands. Occasional spiral circulations, viz.: the cy- clonic (against the sun); with low barometer, and the anticyclonie (with the sun), with high barometer, will be found moving in a general easterly direction across the ocean. Generall: in front of the c-elonic area, or the low, weather is damp, with thermometer rising and barometer falling, while in fornt of the anticyelontc circulation, or the high, it is dry, conler, and the barometer rises. Occasfonal fog will be found along the coast of the United States and in that part of the ocean north of the fortieth parallel. On the southeast coast of Asia the northeast monsoon may. be expected to decrease in force and constancy. S HUGHES, Linm»nunt. U. S. N. THE TIME BALL. Branch Hydrographic Office, U. S.
