WEATHER FORECAST.
For Norwalk and vicinity: {Inset-
tled tonight and Sunday, probably
rain; colder Sunday; strong south-
west to west breezes. A long trough
ot’low pressure extending from Texas
northeastword to Ontario is causing
cloudy and rainy weather with mild
«- temperature in the Mississippi Valley
and Lake region. Pleasant weather
prevails along the Atlantic coast.
Fronts were reported as far south as
North Carolina. It is probable that. the
western trough of low pressure will
be divided into two stormsmone pass
ing out the St. Lawrence Valley and ”‘“
the other retarded until the first of
next week. Should this occur the
weather in this vicinity will be pleas-
ant and slightly cooler, but In case
the disturbance moves eastward as
one storm the weather on Sunday will
be unsetled and shawery.
