35 I APPENDIX A Wind Statistics for Individual Stations These data are based on GCT and 12 GCT reports,. The period of record and the number of ionths of missing data are given at the top of the table. As few as four reports were used in obtaining the ionthly averages. Values are in meter per second. Phases of the annual cycle give times of occurrence maximum west wind to the nearest tenth of a month. (For instance, 4.3 indicates three-tenths of the way irough the fourth month, or April 9.) Phases of the 26-month cycle givetimes of occurrence of maximum est wind to the nearest tenth of a month on the 26-month calendar (see Introduction). Whole numbers afer to middle of months; thus,. corresponds to July 15, 1957.

54 -49- APPENDIX B Temperature Statistics for Individual Stations Data for the annual cycle are based on nighttime observations only. Data for the 26-month cycle are based on both GCT and 12 GCT obserjations, treated separately. Period of record is given at the top of the table. Continuous records exist at all stations except Lihue, Hawaiian Islands where some months are missing, especially at 2 mb. Values are in degrees Celsius. Phases of the annual cycle give times of occurrence of maximum temperature to the nearest tenth of a month. (For instance, 4.3 indicates three-tenths of the way through the fourth month, or April 9.) Phases of the 26-month cycle give times of occurrence of maximum temperature to the nearest tenth of a month on the 26-month calendar (see Introduction). Whole numbers refer to middle of months; thus,. corresponds to July 15, 1957.
