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.
Both North American sites are some 60 degrees from the Alaskan
Peninsula and Unimak Island.
120 degrees from where Fame went ashore at Mahajanga, Madagascar.
Well not quite. Boston (about half way between Cape Hatteras and
Halifax, Newfoundland) is about 120 degrees distant. Though Halifax is
120 degrees from the part of the Seychelles ridge at the centre of the
storm called Gula.
Just a coincidence?
Maybe.
But I don't think so.
Once is circumstance, twice is coincidence but if it happens all the
time, there has to be a reason.
Take for example the unnamed storm near Suva, Fiji. Would it surprise
you to read that it is 120 degrees from both Halifax and Mahajanga?
The eastern wind, when it will blow,
No small rain comes down.
An High over Cape Breton
And St John's, Newfoundland.
When the western wind blows ashore.
Across the North Atlantic
And brings a wide occluded front
Ahh!
I hate to sound pedantic but take a look at the storm centre for 23rd/
25th December 2004 here:

Banda Atjeh is 90 degrees from it and some 120 from NewFoundland.

But I digress.
Sunday was a peach in the UK. Absolutely splendid. How much better can
it get without blowing all the southern seas to the four winds?

Thinking about the stratification of the Highs in the Atlantic at the
moment got me wondering just how much of the algorithm involved in the
lunar ephemeris is based on the actual quarters.
And if I am being gulled by the geophysical forces going on as for
example here at the moment:
