Default Yet another Block

Anything would be better than the weeks of boring, grey, nondescript
gloom we've been getting here in East London for well over a month.


Be careful what you ask for.

When a series of similar spells even nondescript ones such as these,
follow consecutively; it means that there will be extremely unpleasant
times for someone somewhere on the planet when they break.

What it means (blocking is almost a serendipitous description) is that
the dispersion of the main cause of weather has been channeled
elsewhere. When that corridor opens up again, the first thing that
happens is the pent up energy blows a fuse through the block.

(Speaking as a thaumaturge that is of course.)

I haven't noticed any occlusions developing in the NW Atlantic yet. Mind
you I have not looked. If it follows through over the weekend with no
sign of breaking then it WILL be a biggie when it comes.

Soory about crossposting it to my favourite lunatics abode but it is an
interesting weatherscape. (And I'm getting Mr Angry withdrawal
symptoms.~)
