WEATHER FORECAST
Forecast for Norwalk and vicinity:
and Tuesday: little
change in temperature; gentle to mod-
erate winds, becoming variable. The
area of low pressure which has caused
local showers in this vicinity during
the last three or four days is now mov-
ing slowly eastward and will probably
pass out the St. Lawrence Valley to
night. A trough of low pressure over
the western districts is causing unset»
tied showery weather from Texas
northeastward to Upper Michigan. The
temperature is rising in the Mississip-
pi Valloy, but continues moderately
low in all the northern districts.
