Abstract
IN the “Meteorological Notes” which appeared in NATURE, vol. xviii. p. 198, some interesting results are referred to, which show marked differences in the diurnal variations of the barometer at places quite near to each other, as Greenwich, Kew, Oxford. It is remarked especially that the forenoon maximum in the months of May to July occurs near 9 A.M. at Greenwich, and near 8 A.M. at Kew; while at Falmouth and Valentia it is delayed to n A.M., or noon, and occurs in June as late as 2 P.M. at Helder.
