The next large earthquake aught to be Japan.

However there have been few large quakes there in the last weeks
despite all the High Pressure over Britain and Western Europe.

Today (23rd March 2012) with everyone on uk.sci.weather moaning about
how nice it is and how nobody told them about fog and all the rest of
it (comparative drought conditions) I though it might be an idea to
get set for the Japanese quake.

Since the region is blocked we aught to be getting some tropical
cyclones. So far there are none showing.

Last year around this time of year there were notifications of
depressions, storms and cyclones between February 1 and April 30 in 11
basins:

South Atlantic - 14 March.
South Indian - 9, 11, 15, 16 Feb, 17 March, 2 and 15 April.
South Pacific - 18 and 13 February.
West Pacific - 2 April.

I don't imagine it would be a good idea to expect a cyclone in the
South Atlantic to warn us of the next severe Japanese earthquake. But
it WAS the only one just before the Fukushima business.

There are 9 known events in that region according the Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_atlantic_hurricane

Subtropical Cyclone 17 March 1974
Angola Tropical Storm 10 1991
Tropical Cyclone 18 January 2004
Cyclone Catarina 28 March 2004
Tropical Storm 21 February 2006
Subtropical Storm 28 January 2009
Tropical Storm Anita 8 March 2010
Subtropical Storm 16 November 2010
Subtropical Storm Arani 14 March 2011

So they are not completely unknown.
What I remember of events around that time was an eruption in Iceland
and a severe storm in the far north off Norway.

This week, the MetOffice is indicating a lot of volcanic activity:

I'll put some of the charts on an album and a thread in my blog.
I can't think of anything more off hand.
More later.

You forgot to mention the Dartmoor/Eskimo goon, no doubt becoming
suicidal because it's not sub-zero and there's no snow.

We've not had a photo of him ' leading ' expeditions on the dangerous
wastes of Dartmoor for a week or so, perhaps he's working on his tan ?

TWIMC:

The snipped post was a dawlish* meme (a Felix Tilley wannbe.)

The regulars in uk.sci.weather saw him off with a flea in his ear. But
he can't keep away; only now he has a grudge to bear against all.
Which makes me feel a little demoted.
But only a little.

(With the older dawlish posts I just ignored them, as I shall with
these various incarnations now that I have pointed out the obvious.)

Life lesson:
You can't kill a troll by dropping a bridge on it.

* Dawlish is also an actual person who lives in an epithet for a place
just outside an exit door. The poetry brought joy to my heart,
although they wouldn't let me post it on Urban Dictionary.
(But they have a suitable version there in any case. The poetry
brought me joy.)

Incredibly the fool makes a living (a precarious one, I imagine)
giving advice to schools.
I kid you not!

hey doorlsih, when is larry out, did he get life?

And it still might be.

But first let me clear a small point up here for the future generation
that composes Weatherlawyer's ardent fans:

There is an order of magnitude or so between what I meant in the first
instance by "large magnitude" and what followed:

However there have been few large quakes there in the last weeks
despite all the High Pressure over Britain and Western Europe.

Before the Superquake lasdt year there had been a sequence of lesser
large quakes starting in the Bonnin and Volcano Islands.

I'm glad I had the chance to clear that up befor anyone noticed. Maybe
they haven't ben born yet, eh?

I don't think this is the end of it:

And
http://my.opera.com/Weatherlawyer/albums/

The anticyclone seems to be intact judging from the starry night
outside my window.
I can't speak for the rest of Europe but I think that any changes
would have shown up here.

The only give away the storm was an earthquake was the way the Met
Office was so unsure of the weather.

So that seems to have left the door open for that cyclone off
Newfoundland to move in.
If it forms a block then we will be due another southern storm in the
tropics.

There has been a glitch in the matrix somewhere. I don't know how that
Maule quake slipped in. It didn't figure on the charts for the
Antarctic as far as I know. (Of course it DID appear on the North
Atlantic chart but as a double quake. We all make mistakes, I
suppose.)

Anyway this is the next big thing.

But I think it is going to have to wait for Pakhar to implode (A
couple of large 5's or maybe 3 consecutive mid 5s.)

Then (unless the intervention of the solstice meant what I imagine)
the massive quake should show up in the Antarctic.

So...
Where got hit after the last Vietnamese typhoons?

Tomorrow then (6 April 2012) as far as I can make out or is it 24 to
36 hours later?

Once more I will put the chart on my blog somewhere or other, later.

Oh, nearly forgot. Looks like South America AND Japan/Indo China
(wherever that was/is.)
No real set up on the MeO charts. (It actually looks like volcanic
stuff for El Hierro and (might it be?) the Cascades?)
