A Regular Storm Period, which is central on Octuber31st, will have its culminating stages on and touching the 2nd and :3rd of November. The storm diagram shows that a Mercury period covers the first week in the month and that a regular Vulcan per- iod blends with the Murcury period op to the lth. The Mercury influence will dominate weather conditions up to about the 8th, so that disturbed. cloudy and disagreeable weather will be natural even after the close of the regular Vulcan period. General aut- umnal rain storms with touches of lightning and thunder to the south. ward. will center on the 3rd, possibly torching the 2nd and 4th in their in- formation and progress from west to east. The barometer will most likely remein low and temperature high es we pees into the next storm period. A reactionary storm petiod is central on the 3111, 0th and 711'1, Wiring a9 air additional cause of storms and ether disturbances the conjnnetion of the Neon with Earth and Sun on the 5th. We predict that storms will take on decided boreal conditions from about the 5th to the 7th --that rains will turn to sleet and snow, generally. to the northward, with rising barometer, change to colder and very stiff to den- gerons gales from the northwest, es• pedally in all the regions of the great { northern lakes.
