According to the local authorities the.ram-fall at Mumia’s in 1896 was far below the average
Nearlj the whole of the rain-fall took place between' ¡¡’and 7 p.m. The rain was nearly always
accompanied by thunder. Most of the ram occurs with an easterly wind blowing from the highlands
in the direction of the lake. The rain-gauge was by Casella, 8 in. in diameter and had
been procured through the Meteorological Office (MO. 364). ameter, ana naa
Earth Tetnperatures. At Mumia's, 011 March 4 1897, at 5.30 p.m., Mr. Hobley lowered'one
of Symons s earth thermometers to a depth of 3 feet below the surface, the tempLature of the
air at the time being 71 F. and that of the earth thermometer 72°. On March 3 180 7 at c n m
