It has been held by some who have applied frontal methods of analysis to tropical cyclones, that it is the air that comes across the equator which acts as the cold air. The author has twice passed through the Caribbean Sea during disturbed periods, and the present paper is a study of the weather experienced: the information available indicates that the cold air came from the north and that the air from across the equator was the warm mass.
