Abstract
WILL you permit me, as a student for twenty years of the phenomena and laws of weather, to express my surprise that in meteorological tables or records, and weather notices in general, so little attention is bestowed upon the direction of the wind? It is true that in the daily forecasts issued from the Meteorological Office, this has been made for some time past a prominent, and, to my mind, the most valuable feature. Still the point has by no means been adequately dwelt upon by writers upon meteorology, the result being the loose and utterly unscientific talk we are accustomed to hear upon the very first principles of the problem of climate.
