THE WARM WAVES OF JULY AND AUGUST, 1s93.
[By E. B. GIBRIOTT, Wedier Bnreau.]
Tfiirm zoaves and hot iuirich are distinctly di.jsimilur types of the same clnsr
of phenomena. In the United States warm waves are the result of cyclonic
wind circulation whereby air over an extended area is replaced by air drawl
from warmer and more southern latitudes. When the warm air I'asses for a
lengthened period over districts where the soil is dry, where vegetation is not
cooled by the evaporation of moisture, and where an absence of moisture in
the air subjects the earth to the full force of the sun's rays, the dry, withering
heat of the hot wind is experienced. The periods of high temperatare of the latter part of July and the early
part of August were notable in that they partook somewhat of the charactel
of both of the types referred to. The July warni wave produced exception-
ally high temperatures; its prevalence was generally unattended, however, by
hot winds, owing to previous abundant precipitation which had stored the earth
with moisture. The warm wave of the first decade of August fullowing
closely the July dry and heated eriod was severely felt. In some districtq
drought conditions preiailed, and) hot winds were destructive to vegetation.
The July warm wave appeared over hlontana uti the 18th, with masiniuni
temperature 93' at Havre. I t occupied the hfissouri Valley from the 18th to
the 27th, with daily maximum temperature above goo, and a masirnuin of
100' at Omaha, Nebr., on the 23d. In the middle and upper Mississi~qii
valleys the maximum was above 90' from the 22d t n the 29tl1, with highest
readings on the 24th, when 96O was registered at Qaiut Louis, "0: In the
Ohio Valley the heated period began ou the 22d, and the daily niaxlmuni was
above 90' nntil the 29th, with an extreme of 9s' at Cincinnati, Ohio, on the
24th. In the middle Atlantic and New ~n g l a n d states the inteuse beat con-
tinued from the 24th to the 30th, the highest temperature beinx reached on
the 26th, when the maximum was 9G0 at Boston, hla>s., 101O at Philadelphia,
Pa., 99' at Washington, D. C ., arid 100' at Lynchburg, Va. The August
3
warm wn\ e al,l~eared o\er Muiitana on the 311, aith maximum temperature
No snd 9Ro at Havre and Niles City, respectively. I t eltended over the Missouri Vallej uti the 4th, where the temperature continued high until the
8th. N ith daily maxi:~ium above 100'. The heated period continued in the iuidclle nnd utlper Mississiljpi valleys froin the 5th to the 9th, with daily inax-
inintu above Quo, the highe5t reading :it Saint Louis, hlo., 97', being noted 011
the 8th. In the Ohio Valley the temperature ranged high froin the 6th to the 9th, although the heat was less intense than that experienced in July.
Likewise in the middle Atlantic and New England states, where the warm
wave lingered frc,ni the 6th to the l l t h , the temperature was lower than in the
latter part of July.
A promitlent fact noted in the investigation of these and other periods of
intense hen! i, the sluggish movement of the warm wave crests over the cen-
tral valleys and the Easterii States; two to three days are required for the
dt.\elupnient vf extreme temperatures, and several days are required for the
earth and atmosphere to cool to the normal condition. The sluggish move- ment is appmentlp due to a stagnation of the more general atmospheric con-
ditions, whereby winds are lieriiiitted to lJlow persistently from warmer lati-
tudeh. R a m i ~a v e s of the central and eastern districts of the United States
me attended by winds which blow not only froin warmer latitudes, bot also
'ram the interior; they are attended by south to southwest winds. The con- litions by which these winds are 1iroduct.d o\er the sections referred to are
low barometric preswre over the north-central and northwestern districts, and
'iigh pressure over the southeastern stater. A continliatjon of this distribo. ion of Ijressure iq necessary to the persistence of the warm wave and also to
he attainment of exceptionally high temperature. The temperature in dia- ricts visited by a warin wave is at times higher than the temperature in
-egions to the windward; this is particularly true in the case of long continued
~i i r i u periods. In such cases the hot wind element is developed. The lnrth's surface is gradually dried l ~y the waim winds, and when the supply of
iiriizture it contains is exhausted and it is no longer cooled by the evaporation
If moisture it becomes heated; it acts as a receiver and storer of heat. The

warm period the weather was cooler than Usual over extreme southern parts
of the country and along the Pacific coast.
An area of low barometric ilressnre may traverse R large portion of the cir-
cumference of the Northern Hviuiqphere and carry with it elements for the
development of warm waves in sections where conditions favor such develop-
ment; that is over the continents. The cyclnnic area which caused the August
warm wave can be traced to Europe. This area of low pressure advauced from Newhutidland tli the British I4es from the 9th to the 13th, was central
i i ~~r t h ofthe. British I4es on the 14th and 15th, reached the Norwegian coast
nn the 16th. and thence allparentlj drifted SlCJWlY Over northern Europe.
Froni the 14th t u the 18th the 1Jaronietric Irexsure was lnw over northern and
northwestern Europe, and mas higher over southern Europe. Duritig thir
pel i t id evceptionally high temperatiires were reported in Belgium, central,
-wstrrii. and northern France. and southern Germany, and the weather was
cnolrr than nsunl over the Britizh Isles, Holland, Norway, and easteru Qer-
inany.
The hiqtorj of IlntdJIe warin nab es warrantb the cnnclnsion that excesses
(rf tenilwature in one part of ii continent are compensated by deficiencies
in nthrr Ilortions.

In southern Eorolle and Algeria the average temperature obtaind.
overlying air receives no moisture and is heated both by the direct rays of the
sun and by heat radiated from the hot earth.
During the warm periods of July and August the barometric pressnre cnn-
timed low in north-central and northa estern districts, high pressure ol,tained
over the southeastern states, and southwesterly winds prevailed over the CPII-
tral and Eastern states. In districts visited by the warn1 waves little or no
rain fell, and in each locality the heat liecame inore intense day by dav until
relief came in the form of gradually coclling ciindittons and showers. Duiing
these periods areas of high and low bitroiuetric pressure showed marked in-
actibity. Observations of the lower atmosphere show, however, that the
wind movements were greater than usual, escept in the Ohio Vallev. hlonnt
Washington report? show a tiiarked deficiency of wind before and after the
crest of the warm waves crossed New Englaud, and a decided eycew of wind
during the days of their passage. FVitirl records from statintis in the Rocky
Mountain r e ~o n s show slight variations from the average wind movement.
