METEOROLOGICAL INSTRUMENTS.
All the meteorological instruments were maintained in good order throughout the year.
The thermometers in use were compared with Kew Standard No. 647 in Summer and Winter.
The working of the electric contact on the Nakamura Pluviograph is tested daily at 11h.
The Beckley and Dines Baxendell Anemographs were oiled and the orientation of the vanes checked once a month. The Dines Baxendell instrument continues to work satisfactorily, except at very low velocities when its action is uncertain.
