CLIMATOLOGICAL DATA FOR JULY, 1911.

JULY, 1911 | ALFRED H. THIESSEN, District Editor, and J. CECIL ALTER, Observer, Acting District Editor.
July 1911 in the Great Basin was generally fair and quiet, with cooler temperatures than usual in the Wasatch Mountains and eastern areas, and some flooding from heavy thunderstorms. The month was favorable for agriculture and manufacturing, with light precipitation and few rainy days allowing continuous field work. Cool weather reduced evaporation but allowed normal crop growth. There were 16 clear days, 10 partly cloudy, and 5 cloudy days, with light winds. The mean temperature of 69° was 2.5° below normal, with cooler temperatures in the east and slightly above normal in the northwestern part. The first ten days were the coolest, with some stations experiencing freezing temperatures. Daytime temperatures were not excessive, with the warmest days in the middle of the month. Precipitation averaged 0.62 inches, 0.17 inches below normal, with most rain in moderate showers. Heavy thunderstorms caused flooding in southern Utah and western Nevada. Rainfall was heavier in the east and southeast. The rainy period lasted about two weeks, with 4 rainy days on average. Thunderstorms were numerous in the north and west, with severe storms in some areas. Precipitation varied significantly across areas due to factors like mountain ranges, elevation, and storm tracks. To calculate average precipitation, data from stations within an area were averaged. Tables provided detailed data on temperature, precipitation, and weather conditions for July 1911 in the Great Basin.July 1911 in the Great Basin was generally fair and quiet, with cooler temperatures than usual in the Wasatch Mountains and eastern areas, and some flooding from heavy thunderstorms.
