During the first and last weeks of the month, major ,Storms were able to push some moisture through the protect- ing ridge, while from the 10th to 23rd, only a trace of pre- cipitation was received. _ Only one significant record was broken and this was hours of sunshine. Even during the drier periods enough moisture seeped across so that only 39.6 hours of sunshine was received through breaks in the thin cloud cover. The previous rec- ord low was 58.8 hours set in 1966 while the normal is 75.3, Rainfall was twice the nor- mal; snowfall slightly above normal, giving a total precipi- tation amount 144 per cent of ‘normal. The precipitation was spread out over 12 days of the month which is normal for February.
