Weather for Week, April 18th to 24th.
Generally fair, but until the close of the week temperature was low for the time of the year, and frosts were experienced in the north of Scotland. Barometric depressions prevailed southward and south-westward of our Islands until the 23d, when a large and well-defined low-pressure system approached us from the southward, and passed in a north-westerly direction out into the Atlantic. As its centre skirted our south-west coasts, moderate gales from the E. or S.E. prevailed in the south of Ireland and south-west of England.—(From Weekly Summary, "Daily Weather Report," April 26, 1886.)
