Spectroscopic prévision of Rain with a High Barometer

Abstract

MY letter of last Monday (in last week's NATURE, p. 231) having been sent off when we (in Edinburgh) were still in the midst of heavy rain, N.E. wind, high barometric pressure, and an abnormal sky-spectrum, you may be interested in hearing how matters quieted down until this Monday, when we have a delightful drying west wind, high floating clouds, and a normal sky-spectrum showing fine lines only.
