THE Kew photographic curves showed appreciable magnetic disturbances of a normal type on the evening of October 30 and early morning of October 31, but the first distinct precursor of the magnetic storm was an exceptionally sudden movement at about 6h. 3m. a.m. on October 31, shown alike in the declination, horizontal force and vertical force curves. This movement was largest in the horizontal force, where there was a sudden increase of about 60 γ (1 γ ≡ 1 × 10-5 C.G.S. unit). In the declination there was a simultaneous movement of about 7' to the west, apparently preceded by a very tiny movement to the east, lasting too short a time to be distinctly shown. The first large movements commenced about 6.45 a.m., when there was a movement of the declination needle to the west through about 34', and a diminution of 240 γ in the horizontal force. The storm was most violent between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. on October 31, but there was a large amount of disturbance until 3 or 4 a.m. on November 1.
