Monthly
Weather
Review,
29-506:
That
on
Florence
Island,
St.
Lawrence
River,
Aug.
8,
1901,
with
ordinary
hail,
fell
pieces
of
ice
"formed
like
icicles,
the
size
and
shape
of
lead
pencils
that
had
been
cut
into
sections
about
three-eighths
of
an
inch
in
length."
So
our
data
of
the
Super-Sargasso
Sea,
and
its
Arctic
region:
and,
for
weeks
at
a
time,
an
ice
field
may
hang
motionless
over
a
part
of
this
earth's
surface--the
sun
has
some
effect
upon
it,
but
not
much
until
late
in
the
afternoon,
I
should
say--part
of
it
has
sagged,
but
is
held
up
by
cohesion
with
the
main
mass--whereupon
we
have
such
an
occurrence
as
would
have
been
a
little
uncanny
to
us
once
upon
a
time--or
fall
of
water
from
a
cloudless
sky,
day
after
day,
in
one
small
part
of
this
earth's
surface,
late
in
the
afternoon,
when
the
sun's
rays
had
had
time
for
their
effects:
Monthly
Weather
Review,
October,
1886:
That,
according
to
the
Charlotte
Chronicle,
Oct.
21,
1886,
for
three
weeks
there
had
been
a
fall
of
water
from
the
sky,
in
Charlotte,
N.C.,
localized
in
one
particular
spot,
every
afternoon,
about
three
o'clock;
that,
whether
the
sky
was
cloudy
or
cloudless,
the
water
or
rain
fell
upon
a
small
patch
of
land
between
two
trees
and
nowhere
else.
This
is
the
newspaper
account,
and,
as
such,
it
seems
in
the
depths
of
the
unchosen,
either
by
me
or
any
other
expression
of
the
Salvation
Army.
The
account
by
the
Signal
Service
observer,
at
Charlotte,
published
in
the
Review,
follows:
