Comment:
The barometer is not corrected by altitude or temperature. The thermometer is of mercury, it is oriented to the north but in a place protected by the solar radiation. "aguacero" is record when occurred in the city or in the vicinity. During May the thermometer at sun recorded the 12th (36?) 14th (38?), 19th (46?), 21st (42?), 23rd (43?), 24th (46?) and an earthquake was recorded the 19th. The 4th of November the rainfall had the color of the serum. Alzate point out that the Year (1769) was uncommon "November and December were not cold as usual" and "the rainfalls were on unusual times".
