Having removed the dates whose solar declinations are not as close as
they might be, I can look up what earthquakes were taking place during
or shortly after the spells left.

Ditto for tropical storms. Which still leaves a data collection agency
for other storms short of a suitable argument for exactitude. But
fortunately we have as a control: Great Britain. And there are
suitable records of weather types over there. Here is one example:
http://www.climate-uk.com/monthly/0801.htm
http://www.climate-uk.com/monthly/0802.htm

To get the desired year and month you just change the numbers at the
end of the URL.

Here is a list of what is available along with what should be
available shortly.
http://groups.google.com/group/uk.sci.weather/browse_frm/thread/5eea32f2e99df224#

I wonder if the MetO still has its data. Something went wrong with
their data about 1994/96~ish so I can't recommend it.

All in all it is rather hop-scotch. But hardly chaos theory.

If you really want to put your head in the big saucepan, have a look
at these:

2008/03/21

5.0 M. 12:56 32.9 N 141.6 E. Depth 10.0 Izu Islands, Japan
5.0 M. 06:16 35.6 N 81.6 E. Depth 10.0 Xinjiang-Xizang
5.0 M. 04:03 35.4 N 81.5 E. Depth 11.1 Xinjiang-Xizang
5.2 M. 00:26 35.3 N 81.3 E. Depth 10.0 Xinjiang-Xizang
5.2 M. 00:09 -15.1 S 174.7 W. Depth 35.0 Tonga

2008/03/20

5.5 M. 23:12 35.5 N 81.4 E. Depth 17.7 Xinjiang-Xizang
5.3 M. 22:51 35.3 N 81.5 E. Depth 10.0 Xinjiang-Xizang
7.2 M. 22:33 35.5 N 81.4 E. Depth 22.9 Xinjiang-Xizang
6.0 M. 14:11 6.2 N 126.9 E. Depth 33.6 Mindanao, Philippines
5.4 M. 12:16 1.6 N 127.3 E. Depth 108.8 Halmahera, Indonesia
5.2 M. 11:56 6.9 S 155.3 E. Depth 27.4 Bougainville PNG
6.2 M. 08:23 28.9 S 177.495 W. Depth 49.5 Kermadec Islands

I don't consider the depth or the time of any great importance but
perhaps they are.

Thnkfully we don't have to consider too many examples. In fact if you
don't want to lose it all you aught to drop most of these and just
pick one or two and draw yur own margins.

After yu notice something interesting follow it up on the others and
from there widen out the idea to other concepts.

And don't give up when some of them fall down. There will be their own
particular modifications to the model you see a shape in.

OK here is the problem:

All of the above are related to a weather front crossing their own
particular fault zone.

It isn't so much a fault zone. I doubt there is any such thing as a
geologist/seismologist would describe it to himself in his or her self
deception.

It is more likely a mascon discontinuity. Which differs from the
Mohorovicic discontinuity in that a Moho is an example of wave
harmonics. A mascon discontinuity for want of a better phrase, is an
event horizon of some sort. (Nothing to do with that daft ideo of
black holes or any such silliness.)

Suspend your beliefs and for that matter your disbeliefs and find the
matching storm fronts.

All in all a cold spell so far. Wide spread snow showers all over
Britain but nothing terribly severe. A lot of sun in it too.

I guess it was due to the High pressure system in the Atlantic and the
Low in the North Sea. Both bringing down polar air and mixing it up
pretty thoroughly.

Britain is battening down its hatches again. Meanwhile there looks to
be something interesting developing with the lack of large mags since
early Monday:

Probably the latter as Pancho is at 70 knots now and due 80 tomorrow:

(That's an increase from 50 to 80 mph overnight. (Sustained wind
speeds near the core.))

95 knots on the Hawaii site now that's the upper limit of a Cat 2.
It has produced or occurred at the same time as a marked improvement
in the weather here.

Panch dropped to a mere hurricane force overnight and we had the rain
to prove it. It seems to me that typhoons in that area always make for
Shark Bay no matter what. They drop into the Antarctic as soon as they
can pass those standing highs just below the tropics.

This seems to require a modicum of fillage. Something for future
research there I think.

OK, the set up for the next spell is already in place for the USA. At
21:47 it puts the sun in Alaska's Time Zone and the moon in
Mississippiissiiss'ss.
http://www.mapsofworld.com/time-zone-map/maps/world-time-zone.jpg
That's ten hours west and two east for the sun and 6 hours west and
east for the moon.

Looks looks a similar pattern to the last one:
http://weather.unisys.com/images/sat_sfc_map_loop.html
A little less messy perhaps and I think I have seen it somewhere
before.

5.4 2008/03/29 01:53 1.1N 126E 10.0 MOLUCCA SEA

I can't imagine what, though.

No quakes greater than 5 M since 18:20 something last night. So maybe
we are in for a bit of a blow. The Arctic high is looking stringy but
it is still a blocking high. Things are a little more of a sandwich in
the N Pacific.

A 1024 High on the coast of Asia or rather just off it.
975 Low at the far end of the Aleutians.
1044 High over Hawaii and a
988 Low tucked into the arc of Pacific under Alaska and heading for
British Colombia.

Those are sum positive (not very) anomalies.

In the North Atlantic apart from a 1030 High over Greenland and
something not so High stretching up to the Med. from warmer waters,
1026 H, the North Atlantic is full of not very low Lows.

Things seem very nice here. And that stormy weather seems to have
cleared the USA. Maybe we will get a storm in a few days. Maybe it is
slated for North America once more.

A 5 Mag. quake has just appeared on the NEIC list. Unless -or more
probably, given the weather locally, until it is downgraded it would
appear there is no storm due.

Which leaves me looking as foolish as my inferiors would have it, I am
seeing there is such a deep low in the North Pacific.

April 24 to May 2 2007
http://www.climate-uk.com/monthly/0704.htm
http://www.climate-uk.com/monthly/0705.htm

High pressure lay over or close to the British Isles throughout the
month, apart from the 21st-25th when a rather humid south to
southwesterly airflow covered the country. From the 21st. A moist
south to south-westerly airflow affected the country for the next four
days. A drop in temperature over northern Britain on the 16th affected
all except southernmost counties over the next few days, and in
Shetland there were snow showers with a high at Lerwick of 3.5°C on
the 19th; overnight frosts were widespread; Kinbrace (Sutherland)
recorded -3.9°C early on the 20th.

The next few days were much warmer (23.5°C at Gravesend, Kent, on the
22nd), and overnight temperatures were remarkably high for the season
on 23rd/24th and 24th/25th with a minimum at St James's Park (London)
on the latter night of 14.5°C, but it became generally cloudy with
outbreaks of rain. The rain was heaviest in upland western districts
with 90mm in 72h at Capel Curig (Snowdonia) of which 59mm fell on the
23rd alone, but amounts in eastern and southern England were derisory,
and a few locations escaped altogether.

High pressure re-established itself over the UK on the 26th, migrating
to northern Scotland during the last few days of the month, and it
became mostly fine and warm except near North Sea coasts which were
plagued by haar. Districts bordering the Solent were particularly
favoured with highs of 22-25°C on each of the last four days.

April's high pressure persisted until the 5th May. The anomalous flow
over the UK was WNW-ly. With an anticyclone located just north of
Scotland, east to northeasterly winds affected Britain until the 5th,
maintaining the dry and settled weather which had characterised April.
The best of the sunshine and highest temperatures were found in
southern and western districts while eastern and central areas were
cool and cloudy at times. Hurn (Dorset), reached 24°C on both the 1st
and 2nd, while Tulloch Bridge had a diurnal range of 24.4 degC (-2.1°C
to 22.3°C) on the 2nd. Valley (Anglesey) logged 66h of bright sunshine
during the first five days of the month, and at Tiree (Inner Hebrides)
the sun shone for 118h between 26th April and 5th May.

March 21 to 29 2008 http://www.climate-uk.com/monthly/0803.htm

A deepening depression tracked from Iceland past Shetland to Denmark
during the 20th bringing some rain, strong winds, and temporary rise
in temperature (up to 15.0°C at Leuchars), but in the rear of the
depression northerly winds returned with renewed vigour. The Easter
holiday (21st-24th) was one of the coldest on record with sharp night
frosts and widespread snow and hail showers, although amounts of snow
were mostly slight.

It was windy on the 21st and 22nd with a gust of 70kn at Langdon Bay
(Kent) on the latter date, but winds subsequently subsided.

On the 24th the temperature remained below zero all day at a few sites
in the highlands, notably at Braemar (Aberdeenshire) where the maximum
that day was -0.9°C, and early on the 26th the mercury sank to -11.4°C
at Braemar and to -11.1°C at Altnaharra (Sutherland). Milder but
changeable and rather windy weather returned for the last few days of
the month, and all areas had outbreaks of rain.

The 30th was rather warm with long sunny spells but also isolated
thunderstorms, and Howden (East Yorkshire) reported a high of 15.1°C

There is an hint of meovement here:
http://satellite.ehabich.info/hurricane-watch.htm

The other site I use is not functional. 56 kmh isn't much (30 knots -
as fast as ships go when they go fast) but there is a Low slipping
into the Arctic from the North Pacific.

A major High on its east coast though:
