11e has issued the following forecasts
for December:--•
Reactionary Storm conditions will
prevail at the opening of December, and
warmer threatening weather will be
natural until after the new Moot* on
the 2nd. A rapid change to high baa'-
ometor and sharp cold may be looked
for directly behind these storms, be-
ginning in the west, say about the 2nd,
and traversing the country eastward by
the 5th, Storms of wind, rains and
scow, With thunder probable in the
south, need not surprise on and touch-
ing the 2nd. This being new Moon at
an eclipse node, conditions are favorable
for earthquake tremors within forty-
eight hours of Moon's passage between
the Earth and San. A regular storm.
period is central , on the 6th, covering
the 6th to 10th, with Moon at perigee on
the 6th, and on the equator and at first
quarter on the Oth. Look at this time
for a general low barometer, change to
warmer and marked winter storms.
From about the 8th to 15th cd Decem-
ber there is an asnuai maximum of
magnetic and electrical excitation, sim-
ilar to that which occurs abort the
same dates in March and September,
This is the beginning of the winter
solstice, which as the storm diagram
Shows, continues until near the close of
the 'month. Continuedunsettled,
stormy weather, even beyond the limits
of storm periods,, not uufregdontly oc-
curs in tbis part of December. There
will be a quickening in storms of rain
and snow about the 12th and 13th, 'but
quick rise of barometer, with cutting
cold and high northwest wind, will oc-
cur just before and immediately after
these dates. Watch and see.
Another seriesof rainand'suow-storms
will set in et the full Moon on the 16th,
and most likely they will continuo in
greater or less intensitythrough the
greater part of the Vulcan storm period,
the 16th to 20th.: Moon is at extreme
north declination • and full on the 16th,
the ;first day of the period, and low
barometer with heavy. -storms of wind
and rain and snow Will begin in the west
promptly on that date.' A. very high
barometer with violent, blizzardons
gales and drifting snow will follow,
touching all the northern and central
parts of the country during their pro-
gress eastward on the 17th, 18th, 19th
and 20th. Much other phenomena' as
specified in "Astronomy for December,"
pages 88 and '89, .will be natural at this
time. A cold wave as a sequel tothese
winter solstice storms and other dis-
turbances, -twill spread over the whole
country, reaching southern extremes in
modified degrees, but with intensity
sufficient to necessitate wide awake
vigilance on the part of all. whose in-
terestmightba jeopardized •byfrost •and
freezing.
A reactionary perturbation,vwith Moon
at apogee and on the celestial equator,
,
runs from 22nd to 25th. A low baro-
meter with more storms of rain and
snow will almost certainly .traverse the
country from east to west during these
days, and equally certain will a high
barometer and change to very cold
follow behind the storms and dominate
the weather for several succeeding days
over most parts'of the country.
The last five days of December' are
covered by the combinedperiods . of
'Vulcan and Mercury. ''Finter;storms of

likely develop at this time. As new

developing abotit the 29th, 80th and 31st

into January. It will be safe to figure
