-----+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---------- _Remarkable Phenomena._--December 30th. This morning at sunrise there appeared two images of the sun about 22° or 23° N. and S. of, and in a horizontal line with the sun; the whole sky being obscured by dense cloud: neither the images nor the sun appeared very distinct, but presented the appearance of luminous spots. The appearance continued until about 11 o'clock.--This evening at half past five o'clock, a similar phenomenon accompanied the moon.--Around her there was a halo or luminous circle of about 45° in diameter. In the circumference of this circle, on each side the moon and in a horizontal line with her, there appeared an image similar to those described of the sun, though not quite so distinct. They did not continue long. December 5th, fall of rain 1-16th of an inch. {lviii} _Meteorological Register_ {lix} _for the Month of_ JANUARY, 1820 =====+=================+=================+=================+=====+ | | | | | | | | | | Day | MORNING | MID-DAY | EVENING | | of +-----+-----------+-----+-----------+-----+-----------+Mean | Month|Temp.| Wind |Temp.| Wind |Temp.| Wind |Temp.| -----+-----+-----------+-----+-----------+-----+-----------+-----+ 1 | 16 | N.W. | 22 | N.W. | 20 | N.W. | 19 | 2 | 13 | N.W. | 24 | N.W. | 18 | N.W. | 18 | 3 | 4 | S.E. | 35 | S.E. | 28 | N.W. | 22 | 4 | 13 | N.E. | 31 | N.W. | 21 | N.W. | 21 | 5 | 0 | S.E. | 24 | S.E. | 19 | S.E. | 14 | 6 | 20 | S.E. | 32 | S.E. | 28 | S.E. | 26 | 7 | 16 | N.W. | 40 | Calm | 35 | N.W. | 30 | 8 | 24 | N.W. | 32 | N.N.E. | 27 | N.W. | 27 | 9 | 7 | N.N.W. | 14 | N.W. | 14 | N.W. | 11 | 10 | -8 | N.W. | 3 | N.W. | -3 | N.W. | -3 | 11 | -16 | N.W. | -2 | N.W. | -3 | N.W. | -7 | 12 | 7 | S.E. | 32 | S.E. | 36 | N.W. | 25 | | | | | | | | | 13 | 10 | N.W. | 17 | N.W. | 13 | N.W. | 13 | 14 | 2 | N.W. | 21 | N.W. | -1 | N.W. | 8 | 15 | -14 | N.W. | -5 | N. | -5 | N. | -8 | 16 | -9 | N.W. | 4 | N.W. | 1 | N.W. | -1 | 17 | -9 | S.E. | 11 | S.E. | 11 | Sy. | -4 | 18 | -13 | N.W. | 9 | N.W. | 1 | N.W. | -1 | 19 | 1 | N.N.E. |9½ | N.E. | 2 | N.W. | 4 | 20 | -5 | S.E. | 9 | S.E. | 11 | S.E. | -5 | 21 | 10 | N.W. | 13 | N.W. | 1 | N.W. | 8 |
