Abstract
In the discussion on the “Irregular Variations of Temperature in London” (Nature, 126, 61) the case of periods of several days was in question, and smoothed averages were taken. Some years ago I was attracted by the daily irregularities observed at Greenwich, in averages of fifty years, and compared them with those of other available records, Falmouth, Kew, Valentia, and Aberdeen. I wished to have included Buitenzorg, but the volume of records was missing from the Royal Society library.
