SUMMARY FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY, 1927. Notable features of the weather of January were the warmth, dryness, and absence of strong winds; more particularly during the latter half of the month. _ The general precipitation was, in consequence, considerably below the average over most of the Dominion, excesses occurring at a few scattered places, chiefly in the far North and in the West Coast and southernmost portions of the South Island. . With the exception of a widespread westerly depression, which ruled between the 10th and 16th, and mostly affected the West Coast districts, only minor disturbances were experienced. In the first week conditions were rather unsettled owing to a shallow cyclone passing in the North. During this period some beneficial rains occurred in the northern and ea:st coast districts of the North Island, accompanying thunderstorms in parts on the 2nd and 6th. The early part of the month was favourable to crops and growth of grass,. but the warm and dry weather of the latter half detrimentally affected the pasturage, particularly on light lands. : D. C.
