I've a feeling there will be a few tornadoes n this spell.

Lots of 975's and a smattering of promised juxtaposition.


It's 2 am now and not a lot has happened since this one:
4.9 M. 2010/04/14. 12:37. -18.7. 167.3 Vanuatu.
The salient point being the time is getting close to allowing a
tropical storm to build or maybe a significant quake. A high 5 low 6
Magnitude at the moment.

Allowing for the latency of the system, it has been 12 hours since a
decent quake was posted. Of course, if it is a storm it does not
necessarily have to occur on the tropics. And it might well be a
tornado. Or a Low slipping into a front that might go underground in a
day or more.

About 15 hours lapse signifies a severe storm of hurricane values.
Another 3 hours is equivalent to one more setting in the Saffir
Simpson scale.

But of course you all knew that didn't you children?
