Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal Part II Natural Science 1889

1889

The peculiar and distinctive feature of the three most important storms of this period was the extraordinarily destructive character of the accompanying hail which owing either to the immense size of the hailstones and the velocity with which they fell or to the great quantity of the hail and the low temperature it caused was most unusually fatal to human and animal life as well as 18136 S. A. [...] On the morning of the 30th there was a still further fall of pressure especially in the Punjab but the distribution remained almost unaltered and resembled that which obtains about the beginning of the rainy season. [...] The winds were easterly over the hills and the whole of the country north of the Gauges. [...] These observations indicate that from the 26th April to the end of the month there was a steady influx of moist air from the east over the northern half of the Gangetic plain and the outer Himalaya ; that during this time there was a constant high temperature over the regions WIND. [...] On bearing of the violence of the Moradabad storm and of the occurence of the same storm or others nearly coincident with it in.the surounding districts I issued a circular to the chief civil officers of Meerut the Tarni and all the districts of the Rohilkhund Division.
