Abstract
IN connection with the present abnormal season in North-Western Europe, it may be of interest to note that July, 1921, was not only the wettest July, but also the wettest month of any at Blue Hill since observations began thirty-six years ago. The co-ordinates of the observatory are ø = 42° 12′ 44″ N., and λ = 71° 6′ 53″ W. Every effort has been made to preserve the integrity of the record. The total rainfall for July was 261 mm. (10.43 in.), the normal rainfall for that month being 99 mm. (3.92 in.). There were eleven rainy days, and one on which a trace of rain fell.
