A day of rain is one on which more than 0.005 inch fell.
The weather during this quarter has been unusually cloudy; each month has been deficient in sunshine, the total deficit from normal for the period being 94.2 hours. In consequence the range of temperature has been restricted, 90° was not recorded in either July or September and was reached in only four hours during August.
On the morning of September 17 a typhoon, moving W.N.W., passed about 100 miles to the south of the Colony. The highest velocity of the wind recorded was 79 m.p.h.
at 8h om a.m.
December 1932.
