Three deep black Cs approaching Antarctica two of them ominous, a lot of tropical stuff in the mix up to then. I have no idea what happens next except to say that it will be interesting, whatever that means.


Butterfled by the look of it today.


The NAEFS (http://weather.gc.ca/ensemble/naefs/cartes_e.html) begins a period where three Highs dominate. And of course with my head for weather charts I have completely forgotten the implications. Volcanism?


If black were the new red I'd say the BoM was livid with straight line storms so I am going for the safe one and say that it also shows an abundance of tropical storms precede whatever so maybe they are Atlantic signals that intend to make life miserable in the House.


No carbon dioxide was hurt in any of these graphics.


The decay of a tropical storm brings either a quake f such magnitude that all smaller quakes are blanked on every seismometer in the world or we get swarms.

The number of swarms is effaced by the magnitude of one of them in the recent case the only swarm to appear on the front page of SED was the Iranian set.

We can't tell for sure what other swarms were taking place but we can see that certain regions in the blind spot have had minor local stuff. Notably in this spell there was or is an ongoing swarm at a volcano in Iceland.

They are not on the front page of SED because they don't register quakes of less that 4 Mag. But the fingerprint on every register in the world will be slightly different because of these minor swarms. Who knows that larger quakes have not been missed in the process?

The duration was Just over 24 hours (11:24 on the 17th to 00:28 on the 19th August 2014.)


I used to use this ephemeris a lot once upon a time. It's Fourmilabs "Solar System Live" Ephemeris:

Right Distance From 47°N 7°E:
Ascension Declination (AU) Altitude Azimuth

Sun 9h 59m 6s +12° 18.5' 1.012 16.649 90.318 Up

Mercury 10h 45m 25s +9° 18.5' 1.335 22.334 79.388 Up

Venus 8h 51m 42s +18° 21.7' 1.619 9.662 106.616 Up

Moon 6h 17m 6s +18° 29.4' 62.6 ER -12.648 135.825 Set

Mars 14h 46m 44s -17° 23.4' 1.309 25.320 7.169 Up

Jupiter 8h 41m 12s +18° 44.9' 6.217 8.237 108.720 Up

Saturn 15h 2m 16s -14° 58.3' 10.058 27.973 3.178 Up

Uranus 1h 0m 38s +5° 43.0' 19.333 -29.620 -141.051 Set

Neptune 22h 33m 51s -9° 50.9' 28.972 -20.782 -97.975 Set

Pluto 18h 47m 11s -20° 29.0' 32.007 7.220 -49.228 Up

Whilst the RA may be useful as an indicator of proximity to earth most interesting is the declination of the moon and the similar declinations of some to the other "planets".

Venus And Jupiter are in the same declination and Pluto is at maximum south (Not that I think Pluto is worth wondering about.) In a month the RA will be 12 in case you are wondering (6 months past zero hour.) Al the other stuff is measured from that to get an hour angle.Mercury and Venus are the closest.

Mars and Saturn are close together. I don't think anything else counts.

All we have to do now is work out what the astrological stuff means if anything.
Personally I think it is all rather cool but some like it hot.
