DECEITFUL SKIES
The Dominion Meteorologist -went a little beyond the implication of his official forecast yesterday and gave a broad, hint of bad weather for the weekend, but reserved his opinion as to the severity of the storm. Last night and this morning the appearances were the reverse of threatening, and people in Wellington have been ■ treating themselves to sun baths and making occasional sarcastic remarks about "the storm." Mr. Bates sticks t* his guns. He stated this morning that, as a pro-' monitory symptom, to-day's weather was not worth the paper it was written on. There has been a good deal of rain (as forecasted) in the southern and western districts and the outlook for those who can read the barometer on a countrywide icaleis ugly. The wind is due to blow harder from west and north; and ■ Mr. Bates fully expects that on Monday he will be in a position to «ay, -"I told you BO."
