  Our previous results on the connection between the Forbush decreases (FD) of
cosmic-ray intensity and the deviations from the expected values of the diurnal
temperature range (DTR) are briefly revisited. The same type of analysis is
then extended to the cases of sudden increases of cosmic-ray intensity (GLE),
as well as to the search for lattitude effects in the observed correlations. We
find that all the investigated correlations appear to manifest both the
expected signs and the plausible phase relations, though each one only at the
modest confidence level. Moreover, it appears that there is some
proportionality between the magnitude of a cosmic-ray intensity change and a
corresponding DTR deviation, both in the case of FD and GLE events. Eventual
increase of the confidence levels at which these correlations are established
would have to wait for the significant increase of the number of well defined
and sufficiently intense recorded departures of cosmic-ray intensity from its
stationary mean value. On the other hand, the probability of such an accidental
multiple coincidence of independent pieces of evidence is certainly very low.
