Prepared by Michael Steer

The report was read at the Association’s July 22, 1914 Tavistock meeting. The Meteorological Office report for 1913 summarised the year as, "Dull, an open winter, a wet spring, a summer very dry but neither sunny nor warm and a uniformly mild autumn." One new station appeared in the returns - Leusdon Vicarage, Dartmoor. Mr. Murray T. Foster reported the occurrence of an exceptional hailstorm in the Culm Valley on October 27th, 1913. This report extract will (a) provide names of the Climate Committee members, (b) a comprehensive list of the Stations at which readings were taken, as well as (c) the names of the observers. The report extract is from a copy of a rare and much sought-after journal that can be downloaded from the Internet Archive. Google has sponsored the digitisation of books from several libraries. These books, on which copyright has expired, are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
Committee Purpose: To collect and tabulate trustworthy and comparable observations on the climate of Devon.
