Only ( Clear Days
Not only was the weather far too
cool for April but the Valley's
famous sunshine clicked less than
59 per cent of the tune. There were
only six dear days in the entire
month Twelve day* were partly
cloudy, and twelve days were ab
solutely cloudy.. There was 100 per
cent sunshine on only two days, the
weather chief stated.
Low temperatures, coupled with
lack of sunshine, is doubtless res
ponsible far the tught. Mr
Schnurbusch thinks
For the first tune in my career
as a weather prognosticator, temp
eratures have been below normal
every day of the month." Mr
Schnurbusch explained today. ‘This
is very unusual. Usually, weather
has its ups and downs, and some
days will be above normal, others
below normal. But the April just
post was below normal every day
except the third, when it was very
slightly above norma*, and the
thirTKth. when it was exactly nor
mal"
The Rainfall Under Far
Rautfad for the month was also
below normal, he cncinued Nor
mal for Apr! is 143 inches, and
the post month sheared only .57
inches, or a departure of 96 inch
es below normal Greatest rain
fall for the month fell on the
tenth, with J* laches.
The oast three months have
been be.ow norm;* m rainfall
records show Feoruaxy was far
below normal March was sightly
below normal and April was more
than 50 per cent below norms*
Precipitation for the year up to
date, however, is above normal
due to excessive rains in January
The river was moderately high
daring April In the past it has
fallen to aero dur-ng April, but
the lowest this pau; month was
4 2 feet, and hienest 82 Pre

“April has been ar. abnormal
rtcnih ir every respect." Mr
Schnurbusch concluded.
