JUNEAU WEATHER SAME
AS WASHINGTON. D. C.
The present cold snap at Juneau be
gan January 14th, and its severity has
been noticeable to the people who live
here. However, that cold weather is
always relative is disclosed by the
fact that in other sections of the coun
try far south of this city, they are hav
ing far lower temperatures than they
are here and nothing is thought
of it. The weather map of the United
Stales and Canada for January 15th
shows that on that day the tempera
ture prevailing at this city obtained on
the Atlantic coast farther south than
Washington. D. C., and included most
of Virginia, all of Maryland, Dela
ware and all the States and Provinces
north of them on the Atlantic coast.
The zone of freezing weather where
the temperature was as low as it was
at Juneau Just six days ago included
all the Mississippi valley States north
of the Ohio and extended west to the
coast ranges of mountains, including
large parts of Colorado, Utah, Nevada,
Oregon. Washington and Idaho.
