Weather is more 'snow and Following the record breaking storm which hit some sections of Northern Utah during the latter part of last week, temperatures plummited into the sub-zero zone again in many sections of Utah. While minimums did not drop to the extremes reached in mid-December they still . averaged between 8 and 22 degrees below normal for the period except in the extreme Southwestern section of the state where the average was only 4 to 6 degrees below normal. The extreme minimums in the Uintah Basin dropped to the coldest of the season with Roosevelt recording 24 degrees below zero on Sunday morning, Duchesne 19 degrees below zero on the 5th and Fort Duchesne 27 degrees below on the same date. Another snowstorm moved across the state during the latter part of last week dropping additional ad-ditional snow at most reporting stations in the state. Even the Saint George area recorded 6 inches of snow on the ground. Most stations in the state now have at least snow cover and this combined with the sub-zero temperatures is making most farm operations as well as transportation quite difficult. One of the more important effects of cold weather, in so far as human health and comfort is concerned, is the decrease in the moisture content of the air.

The bus insurance has also been obtained and the bus is ready for story for week colder'! keep track of the relative humidity find that they seem to go completely haywire during such cold weather. I am sure that the average home owner fails to realize what happens to the humidity when outside air at a temperature of 15 degrees below zero and 100 percent relative humidity, such as has been recorded in many areas during the past week is brought inside and raised to a temperature tem-perature of say 75 degrees. Under such conditions the relative humidity in the home drops to only 2 percent unless more moisture is added. Quite a few stations in the state recorded even colder temperatures tem-peratures during the month of December and the drying effect of heating the air was even more pronounced. Fortunately cooking, bathing and so on in most homes helps to add a , little moisture but the resulting humidity during cold winter conditions is generally still well below the optimum for human health and comfort.
