The barometer had risen slightly at all these stations except Hoihow. On the SE coast light NE breezes chiefly prevailed with fine weather. At Hoihow the wind had veered to NE since the previous day and light rain fell in the morning hours, but the weather became fine in the evening. The Presto now to the north of the centre had rain squalls with moderate ENE breeze decreasing with rising barometer. The Pakshan had experienced squally weather with wind veering from NW 6 on the previous midnight to NNE 4 in the morning with heavy confused sea. The barometer was lowest at 4 a. (barometer 29.47) and during the evening it was rising with wind NE 6. Vessels S and SE of the centre had light to moderate W to SSW breezes. The centre of the depression which was now very feeble was in 18° 15', 112° 30' moving SSWard.

The above observations indicate the depression to be still existing, perhaps in about 161°, 1111o. The ship logs show to a certain extent a cyclonic wind circulation and the barometer had risen to the north of this position and fallen to the south of it since the previous day. On the 12th the depression had nearly disappeared.
