If I had to rate that output in kilotons, I'd say:
A lot!

It's an area of low pressure moving east across the USA - nothing
unusual in that at this time of year.
Tornadoes likely, nothing unusual in that at this time of year.



Which bodes ill for this next spell. Traditionally this month is one
for thunderstorms of great power in the UK, which is not saying much
by Congolese or Floridian standards.

Well that is not surprising either, given their latitude. Especially
with the Congo being on/near the Equator.


12's and 6's are easily overridden by more powerful spells preceding
them, that spate of spells just gone is a fine example of that. Those
spells were nearly 10's -or if you give them their Weather Lore
denominations:
4's.

Now this is a real classic.

Are you aware of a place where they study this kind of theory?

I think it is in Nottinghamshire.

Near Retford. It is a nice part of the country, near what remains of
Sherwood Forest, and now much cleaner after the closure of those
awfully filthy nearby coal mines.

I'm sure there are many people there that will listen intently to what
you have to say.....

It is called Rampton.
