Abstract
THE author gives, in great detail, summaries of results of twenty-seven years' observations at five stations situated to the west of Birmingham, in a series of tables and diagrams occupying 170 pages. He adds a diary, “Weatherwise and Otherwise,” for the same period, which occupies sixty pages, and explanatory text (seventy-two pages). He also gives a diagram of the normal course of the meteorological elements throughout the year, which is unintelligible owing to want of explanation. The amount of industry displayed is worthy of praise, and most of the tables appear to contain climatic data of real value, but the author's exposition cannot be recommended to the attention of serious students of meteorology.
