Abstract
DURING this storm there was a remarkable depression of the barometer, it falling to 26.9, as shown in the accompanying chart. The lowest depression last year was 28.2 on Nov. 25. Lurgybrack lies in lat. 54° 56′ N., and long, 7° 42′ W. It is 225 feet above the Ordnance datum level. A nearly similar depression was observed at Letterkenny, 140 feet above the Ordnance datum level. The wind veered round from the north-west by north and east to the south, and from the latter by west to north. The storm was succeeded by a fall of snow, which has now melted away.
