Nothing over 5.5 since these:

2014/04/20 5.7 M at 04:17:34 Bougainville - Solomon Is -6.86 154.57
2014/04/20 5.4 Mb at 01:54:13 EASTER ISLAND REGION -26.40 -114.99
2014/04/20 6.1 M at 00:15:58 Bougainville - Solomon Is -7.17 155.31

And that was only a 5.5 then:

It generally indicates tropical storms. But maybe they are storms of a different persuasion?

Once geosyphicysts come to terms with the fact storm tracks depend on their gyroscopic behaviour and has nothing to do with Coriolis (as Newton stated before that damn fool was even a twinkle) we will be getting track definitions every few minutes, rather than every 3 or so hours and they will have considerably closer margins too, as well!

Meanwhile old weatherlawyer is heading towards finding out why. It's a race between him and maker; his three-score years and ten or so rapidly running out. You'd think someone with a better education would try and beat him to it wouldn't you?

There is no fool like an old fool and then there are scientisits, (and a long way down that drain ...here comes Dawlish, watching me closely to see what else he can do to look just as stupid as the day he was born.
(There is a rumour going round that if he had the brains he was born with the doctor wouldn't have bounced him on the floor a couple of times to see if it was a dildo that had come out.) (Of course that is just a rumour. Far be it from me to cast aspersions. Everyone here knows I'm not like that.)
