Moderate to strong northerly .winds prevailed everywhere until about midnight, when in the eouth they veered, to tho south-weet, and with electrldal disturboncec The barometer hns risen Blowly over tho South Island since , midnight, but has continned to fall b. tho North Island., The present indications, however, arc for an increase in orepsure shortly in the north'.and another fall In tho south, which will probably soon steepen the bnronujtfic gradients, nhd cause , strong westerly: winds nr.d changeable'weather more bracing than:lately, experienced. .• .' -.'.
