Abstract
THIS detailed account of the rainfall of 1935, based on returns from more than 5,500 co-operating observers, is the seventy-fifth annual issue of the series begun in 1861 by G. J. Symons, founder of the British Rainfall Organization. Like its predecessors in the series, the present volume includes maps, tables and descriptive matter dealing with the distribution of the rainfall each month and for the whole year, studies of heavy falls on individual days of particular interest and data in regard to rainfall duration, evaporation and spells of dry or wet weather.
