WELLINGTON'S EXPERIENCE
To-day Wellington is being treated to another summer southerly, and the weather conditions are altogether extraordinary for the time of year. .This morning there was a heavy hail-storm, and big; coats, which had been put away until next winter, were requisitioned. Fires are again the order of the day, and it is some considerable time since such artificial heating was needed in December. Cold, changeable, and showery conditions haye been experienced generally, and heavy rain fell in many places in the North Island during the night. Snow is reported from several of the northern districts in the South Island.
, The immediate prospects are for a continuation of cold and changeable weather everywhere, with heavy passing showers, particularly along the West Coast. Warning signals for southerly gales are exhibited on the chief stations. The southerly winds are likely to "decrease in force soon, and a temporary improvement in weather conditions is promised lafer.'
