Rainfall for 1895 ... 121 1896 125 METEOROLOGICAL REPORT, 1876-1899 To the Honourable the Coltnial Secretary, Perth. SIR, I have the honour to transmit herewith a report on the weather and climate of Western Australia. Annual reports have been issued year by year since 1876, and the present volume comprises a selection and co-ordination of the principal facts which have been elicited during these last 24 years. The need for a book dealing generally with the climate of this State is obvious, and I have had it in mind to issue one ever since my appointment. The pressure of other work, however, has prevented me from making rapid progress with its preparation, but it is now completed and will form a most fitting contribution to science from this Observatory as the first of the new century. A considerable amount of labour has been entailed in checking and inspecting the old records. In a number of cases the observations were palpably erroneous, and these have been rejected. This has caused many gaps in the records, but it was considered better to publish only those figures which were felt to be fairly reliable. The resulting tables will now be found to represent with considerable accuracy the general meteorological features of the country, and will probably be consulted largely by farmers, pastoralists, bankers, doctors, immigrants, and all those whose interests are affected in one way or another by the climate of the country of their adoption. I have, etc., W. ERNEST COOKE, Government Astronomer. 81st January, 1901. INTRODUCTION The advisability of taking meteorological observations was first officially recognised in 1876, when a meteorological branch \v;is added to the Surveyor General's Department, and reading's of the barometer, temperature, etc.. were commenced under the direction of the late Sir Malcolm Fraser. In the following year Mr. M. A. 0. Fraser was appointed Observer, and continued to hold that office until February, IBJMi, when it was decided to establish an astronomical observatory, and to transfer the charge of the meteorological department thereto. Meanwhile the system had been extended by placing instruments in the hands of the postal officials in country towns, and at the end of 18515 there were 15 of these contributing regular returns. The results of the observations up to the end of 1894 have been published ") a series of annual reports. Those for 1895 and 1890 were not prepared for press, owing to the fact that the Government Astronomer had no clerical staff, and found his time fully occupied in thoroughly reorganising the sei-vice, formulating plans tor the new Observatory, and inspecting the astronomical instruments at the workshops in London and Dublin. In 1897 the first of a new series of meteorological reports was issued IVoin the Observatory, and this has been followed by those for 1898 and 1899. In the introduction to the first of these a promise was made to issue a book upon the Climate of this Colony, and the present volume is the fulfilment of that promise. It is to be hoped that no misconstruction will be placed upon the expression of the opinion that on the whole the observations up to the end of 1890 are not to be compared for general accuracy with those now current. Nothing but the greatest credit is due to Sir Malcolm and Mr. M. A. C. Fraser for their efforts in the cause of science at a time when the Colony was completely out of touch with the rest of the world ; but no man can perform impossibilities, and all those who have experienced the difficulties of obtaining satisfactory scientific work from outlying districts of a vast newly-developing country must know that it is next door to impossible to get accurate results without frequent personal visits and continuous inspection. This was not practicable under the former conditions, and it is only to be expected that the reports for those past years (to the end of 1890} frequently indicate carelessness and lack of interest. These remarks have been considered necessary in order that readers may appraise the following tables at their proper value. In a somewhat crude inspection of the original returns any obviously incorrect observations have been struck out and all the additions, etc., have been checked, so that it may be safely assumed that the results in this volume give a close approximation to the truth ; sufficiently so for all practical purposes, but scarcely to be considered quite accurate enough for the scientist. It was originally intended to publish results up to the end of 1896 only, but since that time several new stations have been opened in just those regions which are of the greatest popular interest, so the whole has been brought forward to the end of 1899. In dealing with the figures for Perth two things should be remembered : 1st, that the thermometers were removed in August, 1885, from the neighbourhood of the Surveyor General's office to an octagon-shaped louvered house in the Botanical Gardens, giving apparently a slightly lower record for the later years; and 2nd, that these observations were not discontinued when the Observatory was established. A new series was started :>t. the Observatory on 1st January, 1897, but the figures for Perth, here quoted, are those for the Botanical Gardens up to the end of 1899. The following pages are divided into three parts : I. A general description of the types of weather most frequently experienced. II. A general description of the Climate, with special reference to that of Perth. III. Clitnatological Tables, from the commencement of records up to the end of 1899, with maps. The following explanation of the rainfall figures and maps is necessary : In the absence of well marked physical features the Colony has been divided into degree squares. To each square the name of one of the included stations has been given for reference purposes, but the figures are the means of the records for all the stations situated within the squnre. On the maps the reference name is written at the bottom of each square and a dot shows the exact position of that particular locality, the figure giving the mean rainfall being placed in the N.W. corner. APPENDIX. In view of the great interest that is always taken in rainfall statistics, and since it has been decided not to issue the reports for 1895 and 1896, it was considei-ed advisable to print the rainfall for those years in exlenso and these figures are here given as an appendix.

Smooth, &i$/tf. Ma/trjfetc I4O THE WEATHER. This may conveniently be considered under two principal aspects, winter and summer. There are, of course, endless modifications, but the daily weather map is usually of either a distinctly winter or a distinctly summer type. THE WINTER TYPE. The main feature of the weather maps during the winter months (April or May to October) are : I. High pressure between the latitudes 22 and 32, with falling gradients North and South. II. Fine, bright, crisp weather throughout the tropics. III. A succession of " lows " or storm areas traversing the ocean immediately South of the continent from West to East. I. and III. are of course related. It would be unreasonable to expect the " high " to remain permanently unaffected whilst a series of " lows " is moving past. The general statement (I.) ought perhaps, to be modified by saying that a succession of anti-cyclones passes across the continent between the latitudes 22 and 32. The passage of these is almost as decided a feature as the movement of the " lows." Almost, not quite. Mr. Russell, Government Astronomer of New South Wales, has, in fact, attributed to their orderly succession the sequence of weather changes throughout the Southern portions of Australia. There is probably a considerable amount of truth in this view ; but the storms, at all events, as far as Western Australia is concerned, appear to be so intimately connected with the passage of the " low " that it is preferable to associate the most noteworthy changes with it leather than with the -high." A fairly typical series is to be found in the maps for the 23rd to the 28th of April, 1900. Further information as to the antecedent weather will be found elsewhere (vide p. 16), this being the month of the great floods. It will be sufficient to state here that there was such a distinct change in the type of weather map that, on the morning of the 23rd, the following remark was written below the map: '' To-day's weather reports appear to indicate that the character of the season is abruptly changing from summer to winter. We cannot yet say this with certainty, but there are now signs of the first winter type of 'low' approaching the S.W. coast, and the monsoonal rains that have been so exceptionally heavy throughout the interior seem now to have ceased." In the first of this series (23rd) we notice a " high '' on the borderland between West and Soutli Australia, the winds throughout this Colony settling down steadily into the N.E. quadrant, with falling barometers and increasing temperatures. The sky throughout the South- West districts begins to be flecked with cirrus cloud, followed later by alto cumulus, and then by clouds of a denser formation. On the morning of the 24th the " high " has made Easting, and a well-marked " low " appears off the S.W. coast. The winds now show a tendency to veer to the N.W., the sky becomes densely overcast by alto stratus, with bi'okeu nimbus beneath, and rain commences to fall. Next day (25th) the " low " is passing the Ltwuwin ; general rains are recorded throughout the Colony from G-eraldton Southwards, but only very light showers from the Coolgardie Goldfields Northwards. This is the time to expect N.W, gales along the S.W. coast, and on the present occasion they were very severe. The anemograph at the Perth Observatory recorded 955 miles for 24 hours ending midnight (24th-25th), and the anemometer at Cape Leeuwin gave a still greater rate, viz., 1,165 miles. On the morning of the 26th the " low " had spread out along our Southern coast, and the winds in South Australia showed a decided set in the N. and N.E., whilst in Western Australia they were settling into W. and S.W. with an abatement of the gale. Further general rains were recorded throughout the S.W. districts, and a few points on the Goldfields, but the weather on the whole showed signs of moderating. Next day (27th) the storm was passing South Australia, and a "high" was coming on to the continent iu the neighbourhood of Perth. On the 28th the storm area had reached Tasmania, and fine, clear, fresh weather was reported throughout W.A., except along the South coast, where clouds and a few showers still lingered. This is a fair specimen of the passage of an average winter storm area, but it seldom moves with the regularity of this one. Sometimes the " low " does not appear at the Leeuwin until the " high " has reached the East coast, the barometers falling steadily for several days. Sometimes the passage is very rapid. Sometimes the " low " consists of a number of undulations, unbroken by a well-defined "high." This type frequently occurs iu June and July. Instead of the wind veering N.W., W., S.W., S., and S.E., with clearing weather, it reaches West, the gale abates, skies clear for a short time, and the wind 10 backs slowly towards the N. Within a few hours, rarely more than a day, it veers to the N.W. agaiii, with a renewal of the stormy conditions, and this may be repeated for many days before the end of the "low" area passes Eastward and a well-defined "high" appears. From October to December the weather is in a transitional state. The summer type is endeavouring to assert itself, but winter " lows " not infrequently pass along, giving a very mixed set of weather maps, and causing rather uncertain weather with scattered thunderstorms and capricious showers. THE SUMMER TYPE (OVERLAND "Lows" AND " WILLY-WILLIES"). In normal summer weather there is usually a moderate " high " extending along the South coast, or over the ocean still farther South, with falling gradients thence Northwards. This condition is interrupted by two kinds of disturbance. A " low " of the winter type may pass along well to the South- ward, or a "low" may come down from the tropics. After what, has been already said, the former kind may be dismissed in a few words. It is usually preceded by great heat and followed by a gradual cuol change, with probably a few coastal showers. The latter kind of disturbance is the more distinctively summer one. It is generally an amorphous sort of affair, with shallow gradients and badly defined outlines, which seem to push generally downwards from the North coast against the Southern "high." Frequently the "high" refuses to give way, when it will back off to the coast line again and lie in wait for a better opportunity, or perhaps endeavour to cross into the Eastern colonies through central. Australia. Sometimes the "high" appears to split and move Eastward and Westward, leaving room for the "low" to pass through and so on to the Southern Ocean, where it behaves like one of the ordinary winter type. But whichever course it follows it proves to Ix? distinctly objectionable. It is generally pnveded by a most undesirable increase of temperature, and accompanied by terrific heat and scattered thunderstorms. These charac- teristics are especially noticeable inland, and help to cause the disagreeable summer features in the climate, of which more presently. When the "low" succeeds in travelling right across, it is usually followed by a refreshing cool change, but when it is blocked and retreats, the weather remains in a sultry and unsatisfactory condition. A series of maps (1899, January lb'-20) illustrates the passage overland of an unusually vigorous " low." The high temperatures were absent in this case, because this series represents the second attempt. A few days previously it had apparently opened up an avenue right down to the South coast, but was unable to travel any further and forced to retreat. On this former occasion temperatures had ranged up to 110 in the shade. It is just possible that it succeeded in getting past and round the Southern side of the " high," and is represented by the " low " off the South-East corner of Australia on January 16th. Anyhow, the interior was left in a very unsettled condition, and the passage of the disturbance from the N.W. coast, on the 16th, to Tasmania, on the 20th, is distinctly marked, and was accompanied by heavy rain storms throughout. The general weather remarks at the end of the series give the weather in Western Australia only, but on the morning of the 18th Sir Charles Todd. Government Astronomer for South Australia, reports : " As anticipated, we have had general rains, extending as far North as Powell's Creek (lat. 18), etc. "; and on the 19th Mr. P. Baracchi, of Victoria, reports : " Light to moderate rain recorded generally, and heavy over the central, N.W., W., and JN~." This series is an exaggerated instance of the type we have been discussing, but it was necessary to choose an unusually severe storm area for graphical representation, as our observing stations in the interior are so very few and far between that it would be difficult or impossible to trace an average one. Occasionally the tropical " low " assumes the character of a tornado, and is then known locally as a " willy-willy." This bursts with great fury upon the N.W. coast, and is often felt for some little distance inland. Sometimes it can be traced in a mild form across the continent, but is frequently lost to sight after its principal outburst. It is by no means an unusual thing to find traces of its progressive path down the N.W. coast ; the centre keeping out to sea. In about latitude 20 it apparently recurves and moves direct upon the coast line, causing great destruction if it happens to strike a township. The barometer does not as a rule fall below about 29'4 or 29'5, except close to the centre, where it is sonic- times below 28 inches. A very severe " willy willy " visited the N.W. coast at the end of March and commencement of April, 1898, the progress of which can be traced on the accompanying series of weather maps (March 28th-April 2nd). After 9 a.m. on the last day the barometer commenced to fall very rapidly at Cossack, but a full description appears in the " introduction " to the annual report for 1898, which is here reproduced. 10' HO* 170' feather ft a AT SAM.

Smoort, S//j/>f, Modenretc 11 Storm at Cossack, April, 1898. A very severe storm, known locally as a " willy-willy," visited the North-West coast at the end of March and beginning of April. The first well-marked sign of its approach came from Port Darwin, in the Northern Territory of South Australia, on March 28th. The barometer at 9 a.m. read 29'40, and fell to 29-34 during the course of the day, accompanied by heavy rain. This is the lowest reading recorded there since that town was devastated by a terrible cyclone about a year previously. The storm, keeping out to sea, travelled in a South-West direction at first, passing Wyndhain on the 29th where the barometer fell to 29-33, with heavy rain. It continued to move down the coast, passing Derby on the 30th (29-51 ) and Broome a little later on the same day (29'60). Its motion now appeared to be retarded, due probably to the fact that it was recurving and preparing to travel in a more or less South-East direction. The winds now commenced to freshen, blowing from the East at Cossack and North-East farther up the coast, and this, combined with the shape of the isobars, indicated that the storm centre was still lying out at sea. On the morning of the 2nd the wind was from the North at Condon, East at Cossack, and South at Ouslow, blowing strong at each place, and the barometer at Cossack had fallen to 29-54, with very high sea. The storm, apparently, was now moving from the sea straight on to Cossack, where the barometer fell rapidly, reaching a minimum of 28718 at 5 p.m. Some idea of the hurricane that was then experienced by the inhabitants of this town may lie gathered from the following extracts from the Went Australian : " The town presents a very dilapidated spectacle. In no storm previously experienced has so much damage teen wrought. Telegraph communication between Roebourne and Cossack, and Eastwards, is entirely cut off. The line between the two former places is down for three or four miles. The tramway embankment across the marsh is washed away, and the rails have parted in places and been lodged 20 yards from the site of the embankment. All the approaches and bridges, both along the tramway line and on the road, have been completely washed away ; the rails standing several feet from the ground. Communication is cut off by road. " Several daring persons walked up to Roebourne through niud and slush up to their knees to com- municate the news of the most terrible disaster that has befallen Cossack, which appears to have been the very centre of the hurricane. The experiences of some of the residents of Cossack are most heartrending. 'Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, observing their dwelling collapsing, left it with the intention of proceeding to Mr. C. W. Paterson's residence, a few hundreds yards off. They had a terrible time of it. They were for four hours hanging on to the spinifex, in the midst of the storm, before they reached their destination. Wilson lost sight of his wife for a whole hour, and then only found her by chance. S. Hemingway and B. Thompson, after their residences had collapsed, got into a 400-gallon tank to save their lives, and remained there, up to their middle in water, till daylight. The jetty has sunk down many feet, and the goods shed is frightfully torn about by the storm. The sea burst in the door facing the creek and swept a quantity of cargo out. Fearful damage has been done to shipping. The s.s. " Beagle " is piled up on the rocks on the South side of the jetty, in front of the Weld Hotel, with her stern resting on the fallen walls of the jetty and her bows on the rocks. The schooner "Maggie Gollaii" is a total wreck on the beach, towards Japtown. The dilapidated jetty was fully loaded with general merchandise for Condon. The cargo is now strewn along the strand from one end to the other. The schooner " Harriet" is high and dry on the beach close to the North side of the jetty. The s.s. " Croydon," which was moored near the stock jetty, on the opposite side of the creek, was carried fair on to high laud. The cutter " Rose " has been washed up between the residences of A. Rouse and A. S. Thompson. Smaller crafts, such as passenger boats, etc. were carried greater distances inland. The only boat that remained at her moorings was the police boat, Not a single boat other than this is safe." After this outburst it is difficult to define the track of the storm. Our stations are, unfortunately, very widely separated in this district, and entirely confined to the coast. On Monday, the 4th, the direction of the wind and general shape of the isobars indicated that the pressure was lowest to the seaward of Cossack, and on the 5th the normal type of weather accompanying an anti-cyclone over the South- West portions of the Colony prevailed. It not infrequently happens that these " willy-willies " travel overland to the Great Australian Bight and bring unsettled weather to the goldfields ; but, in this instance, no such track was in any way indicated. 1$ The following table shows the rainfall in points (100 to the inch) that accompanied the storm, and it will be seen that in some instances (e.y. Whim Creek) it \vas remarkably heavy : Station. March. April. Total. 28. 29. 30. 31. 1. ! 2. ^. Wyndham ... Carlton Rosewood Downs ...

The average rainfall for each month is as follows : May 487 June ... ... ... ... 648 July 589 August 570 September 296 October 205 These figures might convey the impression that Perth is a very wet place during the winter, but the reverse is the fact. One of the wettest days that have occurred was 15th June, 1900, and on that occasion the following remarks on the rainfall of Perth and the manner in which it falls were communicated to the daily Press by the Government Astronomer: Last Friday (June 15th) was probably one of the wettest days that Perth has ever experienced. The winter rain here generally consists of a series of heavy showers interspersed with fairly long intervals of fine weather. On this occasion, however, there were 9 hours 20 minutes of actual rainfall between 9 a.m. on Friday and 3 a.m. on Saturday, 14 and the total amount registered on Saturday at 9 a.m. for the preceding 24 hours was 2(>. r > points. This constitutes a record as far as the Observatory is concerned, and the amount recorded at the Botanical Gardens, viz., 271 points, has only twice been exceeded since the records commenced in 187U. The two exceptions were in July, 1891, when 3 inches fell, and in May, 1879, when 280 points were registered. The actual number of rainy hours during one day has been exceeded only once since pluviometer records commenced in April, 1897. Between last Friday and Saturday mornings at 9 o'clock it was actually raining for 10 hours 12 minutes, and during the day ending 9 a.m., September 30th, 1897, there were 12 hours 48 minutes of actual rainfall, but the total quantity then was only (50 points, and most of this fell during the night. This morning (Sunday) 72 points, and this evening at 6 p.m. 80 points, were registered, making a total of 4 inches and 17 points between Friday morning and Sunday evening. The amount so far recorded for this month is 731 points, or nearly an inch in excess of the average for the whole month for previous years. The greatest quantity ever registered in Perth for the month of June was 12'11 inches in 18!X). Owing to this tendency for the rain to fall principally in heavy showers and at night, and to the sandy nature of the soil, which rapidly absorbs it, the general impression of the Perth winter is that of a succession of fine, bright, calm days, varied occasionally by a severe but brief storm. The weather is on the whole delightful, but it may perhaps be too mild. One misses the keen frosty feeling that is experienced in other places, and its absence probably justifies to some extent the popular statement that the climate is enervating. At night it is frequently cold however, July showing an average of 8 nights during which the minimum thermometer in the screen registers below 40 degrees. (As this description of Perth is to be taken as representing more or less the whole of the South-West district it must be stated that severe frosts are by no means uncommon inland. The coldest part of the Colony at night is between Southern Cross and Katanning, and here the thermometer frequently falls below 32 degrees, especially if exposed to radiation. The mean minimum in the Stevenson screen for July is 3f>'l at Southern Cross and 39'5 at Katanning.) Very severe floods have been occasionally experienced at Perth and elsewhere in past \ ears, but not since systematic records commenced. The summer does not set in quite so abruptly as the winter. With an occasional hot day in October it commences generally in November, but does not as a rule Income really noticeable until after Christmas. Taking a temperature of 90 degrees in the shade as the criterion of a hot day, we find an average of less than 1 in October, 4 in November, 7 in December, 12 in January, 1 2 in February, 9 in March, and 2 in April. This number (47 in all) seems rather formidable, but the heat is not, as a rule, felt oppressively on account of the short portion of the day during which it lasts on each occasion. On a normal hot summer day a sea breeze always sets in about noon on the coast, and reaches Perth about 2 p.m. The temperature then commences to fall, and the evening and night are delightfully cool and pleasant. Occasionally a protracted spell of hot weather is experienced, but even then the nights are generally cool. An interesting table is given on page 26. This includes all the " heat waves," as they are popularly termed, which have passed over Perth since January 1st, 1880, and it will be noticed that hot nights are distinctly exceptional, even during these specially selected hot periods. The longest of these spells without a break occurred in 1896, when the maximum exceeded 90 degrees on every date between January 25th and February 12th, nineteen in all ; but the most severe heat was apparently in January and February, 1880. The highest reading that has so far been recorded in Perth is 116'7, which occurred in January, 1878. Notwithstanding the fact that the monthly means are as a rule higher than those for the principal cities in South Australia, Victoria, and New South Wales, and that we are in a lower latitude than any of these, the same remark may be applied to the summer climate as to the winter. It appears to be milder than the others. One notices the absence here of those violent changes which are sometimes experienced in the other colonies. When a cool change conies after a spell of hot weather it seems to steal upon the land gradually. The appearance of soft watery cumulus clouds in the West, generally about sunset, announces the arrival of the welcome change. That evening will be cooler than the preceding ones, but not remarkably so, and next day it may be more or less cloudy, but only moderately cool. At night probably a few light showers, and we realise that a definite change has occurred. Whether or not the sudden changes experienced elsewhere act as a tonic it is difficult to say, but, at all events, they rarely if ever occur in Perth. A curious instance of uniformity is afforded by the figures showing the average summer temperatures since 1876. One frequently hears the expression " A remarkably cool summer," or " A terribly hot summer," "A real scorcher," etc., yet we find that although the means for the individual months may vary considerably, those for the summer (November to March) diverge but little from the general average. It must be remembered, in studying the following figures, that the thermometers were transferred from one locality to another in August, 1885, and, therefore, the two periods 1876-1885 and 1886-1899 must be studied separately. So uniform on the whole are the figures, and so distinct the break, amounting to 2'l, that the change in the method of exposure was ascertained by means of it.

A lengthy description of this is unnecessary, and unfortunately our knowledge is derived mainly from coastal stations. The year may be divided into two seasons, wet and dry, the former lasting from the middle or the end of November to the end of March . During this period the weather is very unpleasant, the maximum temperature every day being close to or above 100. Records of 110 are by 110 means infrequent, and the thermometer has even reached 120, the highest reading ever registered in the Colony being 123 J , at Ouslow, in February, 1897. As an illustration of the extreme heat to which this region is sometimes subject the following figures for the summer of 1895-96 will doubtless prove interesting. Mean monthly maximum temperature at Ouslow : October, 1895 ... 100'5 deg.

Thunderstorms, accompanied by heavy rain, are frequently experienced, and it is during this season that the willy-willy occasionally visits the N.W. coast. A moderate rainfall can generally be relied upon down to about'latitude 20deg. but South of that it is uncertain. Sometimes it will be very heavy and at other times hardly a drop will fall. The heaviest ever recorded was 36-49 inches at Whim Creek, near Cossack, on April 2-3, 1898. 16 The most severe drought occurred between June, 1890, ;uiQioooc5eoQD04OoD t XXCOCOW 74COrH(7^rHr-'!NrHCax^??oc^NcococcoaM?a?j cccccc:c N" r-T -H" 8 M N O OS W s N 3 * to ! b x . . .

The State has been divided into " degree squares," and in each of these : 1. The figure shows the mean rainfall for that square, obtained from the records of all stations situated therein, and for as many years as the records cover. 2. The circle represents this graphically, according to the attached scale. 3. The name is that of one of the stations situated within the square, inserted for reference purposes. 4. The black dot indicates the exact position of this particular station. 5. A + signifies that no rain has ever been recorded at any station within the square for the month. The rainfall is always recorded in " points," 100 points = 1 inch. No means are taken where the records do not extend over at least five vears.
