Full Moon . . . . at: 13:35.

A band of cloud running from Mexico to Canada.

It's nice when I'm on the ball.

On the ball? What do you mean? On the ball about posting data from
an astronomical ephemeris calculated by someone else? On the ball in
posting the location of some clouds? Why is that nice? Did you
forget to include some conclusion that we should all draw from these
two, seemingly, unrelated factoids?

Yes.

And no.

I didn't forget. I just read my previous stuff. I suggest you make
more effort.

Looks like we are in for a sequence of Mag 6 quakes:

Hey dude, where's my seismicity?

In decades to come people will be mulling this break in things as
another one of life's gems.

McNeil's Maxim:

When the largest magnitude that breaks a spell is of less than 7 M,
there will tend to be a supercyclone and the quakes following on from
it will tend to be in the region of 5 to 5.5 mag.

And now the storm is abating. Heading for New Zealand, so perhaps a
large one for Macquarie Island or somewhere down there?

We had a nice day or so here while it lasted. So, by and large, I
can't complain. So back to the wet weather I suppose?

Back to normal here with the floods and what not.

Looks like this is where |i came in with this site, too:

http://weather.unisys.com/images/sat_sfc_map_loop.html

We aught to see a strong line of cloud flowing through the US from
southern California to the NE corner.

But that's for later this afternoon and after, with the new spell.

And finally as the rivers flood and frosts take over from rain, I
thought I had best mention the Channel coast that is awash with timber
following a ship wreck near Worthing.

Hardly any rain in Britain since this spell started. Look out for at
least one major earthquake as the series ends.

I know you enjoy the vagaries of language, but since the goal of most
language is communication, I'm really curious about what you mean
'series'? Do you mean a series of lunar phases from, perhaps, full
moon to full moon? Do you mean a series of storms, where each is
separated from the previous by less than a certain time period, like a
day? Or do you simply just string words together in interesting ways
as a form of self-entertainment with no underlying intention to
elucidate or educate?

This was sequence of events from the end of November. A series of
lunar phases that were broadly similar.

They all held a degree of difficulty for me as they are or were all
quite unstable spells.

As it turns out they were more of a stable variety than I was alluding
to in that they induced between them a series of singularities most
noticeably, blocking highs.

I did forecast they were a series early on but as usual I can't find
the damned post.

You will just have to plough through the lot of them if you want to
study the technique.

These are they, starting with one that should have produced an
anticyclonic spell over the UK going on to one that is only an half
hour different in its induced harmonic.

Nov 9 23:03 Fine

It is customary for such a long series to run through the following
phase whatever its time. So that the last one here too may be a spell
similar to the above.

But in this case it would appear not as this spell from the 22nd isn't
as wet as it should be. However it is still early days yet.

Broadly speaking a time of phase at 11 or 5 o'clock am or pm induces
fine weather and one at 7 or 1 o'clock induces wet.

Spels at 20 past or 20 to the hour are always a bloody nuisance for
some reason and it all goes to cock when a supert-yphoon or as in one
instance a very powerful storm in the northern latitudes takes place.

The sequence has roughly the same effect as the building of an
earthquake has.

So far as I am able to ascertain, a Mag 6 quake is the equivalent of a
normal hurricane. A Mag 7 to an SF 2 or 3, a Mag 8 to an SF 4 and I
suppose a Mag 9 quake would equal an SF 5.

I don't really have much experience with all that as I have only
recently put the coincidentae together. And of course such events are
rather scarce.

It would help if past data was properly archived but the sites hosting
storm values are not what they might be. Hence I find it easier to
work through them as they happen.

I am not able to discern a great deal of difference from what the
weather should be doing to what it is doing during an SF 1 event but
an SF 3 or 4 can knock the clock back by 3 or 4 hours.

As for the lunar phases per se, I have never been able to see a
significant difference in the percentage of visibility. 0 or 100%
looks the same as either of the 50%s. (I am of course sufficiently
familiar with the changes of the phases so as to be able to tell the
time from them.)

That High in the middle of the USA is on the move:

And here's a fierce Low to match it:

Looks like it will be an hurricane on Sunday:

It never rains but it rains something chronic. Notice the
international nature of these things. I wonder if there is a danger of
wild fires in California again.

Ah well back to the drawing board.

That high did disappear from the USA but Canada seems to be holding on
to it for some reason. It's dodging its fate off Labrador.

Meanwhile off Madagasgar, Fame is now a cat 2 storm and not that far
away Gula is a cat 1.

So much for my Cat 7+ earthquake.
http://www.gdacs.org/cyclones/
I should have realised when the official weather forecasts were on
the ball. Usually met men and women confess to a measure of
uncertainty when there is very large magnitude quake due.
It's a foolproof indicator.

So what is going on off Canada? It is rare, as far as I know, to have
an anticyclone where a Low should be.

Or is it?
Unless they are a particular of concurrent activity for hurricanes in
the SW Indian Ocean, this sort of thing must occur about 100 times an
year.
