| Description | Daily meteorological observations at Bonn, North Rhine-Westphalia, with three records per day, taken at 8.00am, 1.00pm and 10.00pm., but with some variations across the year, and the afternoon reading moving to 2.00pm. Columns for date and time, barometer, thermometer, wind direction and strength, and general weather remarks, with rainfall. Concluding with a general discussion of the weather for the year, which includes summaries of data by month.
The paper has been badly water damaged at the top, partly obscuring or completely erasing the early records for each month of the year.
The observations were made in response to the paper: 'Invitatio ad observationes meteorologicas communi consilio instituendas', by James Jurin, Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, v.32 (1723), pp.422-427.
