XIAOCHUAN, Sunday. — An overcast sky is the word from the Xiaochuan station, with a high of 10° and a low of 5°. Old hands will call it a proper November day: the thirty-year average for Xiaochuan is 11°. The wind keeps up from the NNE at 27 km/h, gusting to 36 km/h, and the glass is rising, a sign of settled weather.
Looking over the next 7 days, our correspondent reckons Friday the pick at about 13°, while Tuesday night will be the coldest at -1°. Not a drop is expected in that time. Those keeping stock should see to the water troughs, for ice is likely.
