By telegraph. The weather
forecaster does not look out of
the window and guess. He was
not weather wise like the old
salt who scents the approach of
a elorm without knewing how.
.To the signs? by which, the;
oidinary citizen decides whether ,
to take tu umbrella with linn
or leave it at home, he pays no
aitenlion. ' Give him his . tele-'
41-aph wiree and he can make '
ii is predictions as accurately in
1 windowless cellar as on the
top of New York's highest sky
craper. ' . '.
. The private individual seesv
the clouds settle on a near-by
Mountain' or the rain sweep .
overa field a mile from his house
ind knows that the ; storm will
be on. him in 11 few minutes.
With the aid of the telegraph
tne wt-ather man sees the same
gtorm when it is a thousand .
milex aay. and not only this
storm but every other one in tho
lountry. He knows in what
direction and at what speed
each is moving, and can thus
calculate with reasonable ac
curacy the approximate time
when in will reach any place in
its route.
Twice a day, at 8 in (he mon.
ing and 8 in theerening, reports
ate telegraphed to Washington
from about 200 observers station-;
ed in as many different localities ,
in the United States and Can
ada. In these reports the ob-'.
servers do not volenteer tlieir
personal opinions about what is
going to happen. They confine
il emselves to a plain statement
of ihj actual conditions at that
pirticular moment, the pressure,.
or weight, of the atmosphere,
the temperature, the direction
and velocity , of the wind, the
amount of tain 'since the last
1 eport, and so forth . From this
information the Weather Map
of the United States is made tfp,
showing the conditions that
prevail in every part of the
country. Since there are two
maps for each day it is obvious
that by comparing them the
forecaster can keep track of the
c mrse and progress . of both
btorms and periods of c 1 e a r
weather. From that, the next
step is to predict what sort of
weather will prevail for a day
or two in any given locality.
This map is the basis for all
scientific wnather forecasting.
A glance at it will show that it
is divided in into "high pressure
areas" and "low pressure
areas."
Low pressures usually mean
itiong winds, rain, and rising
temperature; high pressures,
cool, clear weather. Far a 'rea
son to be explained later, these
"high" and "lows," as they
are called, traveliu a general
direction front west to east.,
The forcaster notes their pro
gress on . the map, perceives
their speed and their route, and
then predicts the time of their
triival at any specified point.
If they traveled, like a ship
nles-ed by a compass, an exact
course 10 the east, and if they
noved invariably at the same
peed, then weal her forecasting
ivauld be a simple sum in arith
metic, like calculating the time
hen a railroad train running
jO miles an hour will arrivo at a
tation 500 miles away. .But
.toi ms are not railroad train. J
They travel in an eas'.ernly di
rection, but they do not travel
lue east.
