For Norwalk and vicinity: General
Iy cloudy tonight and Thursday Lo«
cal showers have occurred during the
past 24 hours In the Southern, West-
ern and Central sections. There is
no well- defined storm area east of the

cloudy and showery weather in the
western portion of the Lake region.
This is likely to pass too far north to
produce rain in this vicinity. Temper
Iatures below freezing were reported
from the British Northwest. Condi-
tions favor for this vicinity cloudy and
unsettled weather.
