'ALMOVST A RECORD WINTER.
. r —“._'
Twenty Eight Show Storms With To-
.tel Fun at '43; t 7 Inches.
According to thd cnthcr records
iserver Henry Robinson Buck. as s the
liiartford Times. the last snowfall was
the twenty eighth this wintet. In esti‘
hinting the number Mr Buck made
no distinction in a storm that began.
say, in. the morning, stopped a few
hours in the middle of he day and rc-
sumed snowing in the vening. Such
stoma he counted as one. I! such
had been counted separately, the num-
ber would go well into the thirties.
Street Superintendent Philip Hans
ling, .ir.. claims there have been thir-
ty snow storms. At any rate, this
year holds the recmd for more than
fifty years.
The total amount of snow that has
fallen from November when then
was a slight trace. to the present
week, Is estimated at 54.9 Inches. or
four 'feet, seven inches. it is neces
sary to go back almost. one hundred
beats It. In the winter of 1804-5 the
total fall of snow was fifty-six inches.
and In the winter of lSOE-d‘the fall was
59.7 inches.- Even the blizzard winter
of toot-8 fell almost six inches behind
tms year‘s record, as the fall then is
given as only 48.8 inches. Since No-
vember iasl'year up to the present
date there there have been sixlccn
ruin'storms with a total precipitation
of ”.80 inches.
Mr. Buck stated that the United
States climate and cmp reports say
the winter has been an exceptionally
dry one. To the severe cold weather
ls attributed the cause of the heavy and
numerous snow storms. but even If .e
weather had been warmer. and the orc-
cipitatlon water instead of snow, the
total would be considered now in com-
parison to other winters.
