Tho oentre of a regular Vuleen storm TTespied fella oe the end, the melon being n apogee on the eama dale Ail the month comae ill tale temperature will be phanging to warmer in Western parte, the barometer will fall Bret in the same eectione, and from the Ind to the 4th in. elneive oloudineee, with rain and snow, Will pave Beat wardly aoroee the country. If you fled the , weather growing warm paid bright East of the etorm oentre, don't be put off your guard. Keep au eye on your barometer and hygrometer, and be ready for the approaoh of the rain and snow chariots, which are pretty sere to arrive, pressed close on the Weeteru flanks by some stiff, boreal winds and big big drop iu temperature. If the Monne of a given period are' a few boar° ora day or ea ahead of the normal time, or if they are delayed beyond their ordinary, time, the practical man or woman le not going to be dieconoerted by moll slight varia- tions. The warm, open weather preceding the etorme will not dealeve, and the rash of the alarm and the cold wave following will not be surprises. The oold weather sure to follow the drat storm period of the month will moderate on and touching the 7th and 8th, the barometer will fall, winds will drop around to Southerly, and more rain, turning to scow West and North, will pave Eaetwardly across tbe country. On and about the 8th, general rains with possible lightning end thunder Southward are probable, ac on thie date the moon passes over the celestial equator, very close to ite first quarter. The Winter eoletiae period ales Bete in at this time. In all reasonable probability, a wide and general oold wave will spread over the country from about the 9th to the 12th. A regular storm period is central on the 14112, covering the 12th to the 17th. The disturbs -noes of this period will reach a crisis within forty•eight boars of the time of fall moon on the 14th, naturally after rather than before that hoar. Dur ing this period many very decided Winter etorma will visit the North Atlautio Oaean, making navigation perilous and unpleasant. In fast, a long and severe spell of boreal storms and storminess, ere peaially on the arae and along the Northern meats, will set in about this time, and continue well through the re. minder of the month. Very deoided blizzards in the North end Wert will be very natural on and about the 14th and 15th. Behind these etorme look for a very high barometer, with severe Winter gales from the Northwest, and a oold wave that will be felt in varying degrees to the Southern ooaets, All through this part of the month continued teodeuoy to Winter etorma will prevail but a marked return to storm conditions, with general rain and snow, may be expected about the 194b to 21st. Oo the 21st these reactionary storms will culminate in possible winter thunder, wind and rain, especially to the South, but it will be wiee to look for a sudden Change to snow, sleet and freeziog, as the centre of the low barometer works well to the East. The lest storm period for Daaember and the year 1902 is central on Christmas day, the 25th, Storme of this period may have developed in Western eeatione by the 25th but central and Eastern • parte of the country will moat likely have fair and moderate weather Christmas Day. From about Friday, the 26th, to Monday the 29th rain and snow will ad• vanae Eastward quite acroea the country, leaving very sold weather behind them over most of the couutry as the month goes oat. ii wood.poile plvor weenie tel bare th' same flaypr es e drink out iv a glees at Ib' bar.
