24 SEPTEMBER THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE 1355

On the 13th a deep depression passed to the south, with rain
on the West Coast and in Taranaki and Northland. During the
next three days light falls spread to most other districts as a small
depression crossed the South Island.

The second half of the month was mainly notable for the per-
sistence of a large anticyclone moving slowly eastward from
Tasmania across the Tasman Sea, with a ridge of high pressure
extending on to the South Island. It was a period of settled, sunny
weather for most of the South Island and the greater part of the
Wellington Province.

From the 17th to the 23rd a complex depression moved slowly
from the North Tasman Sea across Northland and to the east.

Conditions were unsettled in the Auckland and Hawke’s Bay
Provinces, with frequent rain. Some heavy falls were reported in
Northland on the 18th, in Coromandel on the 20th, and in parts
of Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay on the 21st.

On the 24th winds turned to south-west with the advance of
the anticyclone towards the North Island. For the last eight days
of the month unsettled conditions with showers persisted in Fiord-
land and Foveaux Strait. At times the showers also extended to
the West Coast and to western North Island districts from Egmont
northward.
