Oh boy fancy nearly missing this:
23:03.

It is very rare that a phase falls at exactly the same time within a
few months of the last one. In fact given that there are 24 hours in a
day and that a phase can land on any minute of any one of them, it is
rare for a phase to be within half an hour of another.

Suppose that the weather and events that occur during such a phase are
repeated to some extent if they occur with a 10 minute interval, then
it is likely that if they occur at the same time of day, even though
several months apart, there will be extreme likenesses.

As in this case:

12th August 2007, 23:03.
9th November 2007, 23:03

The lunar and solar declinations are different of course. That is not
to say their resultants or combined harmonic effect whatever that
turns out to be, won't be similar. I couldn't say. It's just the
chances of getting a declination similar are about as poor as getting
a phase similar.

(The moon makes a journey of some 54 degrees of declination every 27 -
28 days. It seems to have a long point of dwell at tdc and bdc too.)

It's around 27 degrees South for a few days at the moment for
instance. Have a look at the 22nd August he

This is from a thread started on the 15th August:

4 tropical storms on the boards today. 2 of them super cyclones:

Ordinarily, the time of the phase at around 23:00 would produce a
reasonably fine spell of British weather. Unfortunately all the steam
for this set up is taken up in a sump filled with powerful hurricanes.

We were supposed to have severe weather high winds and heavy rain. I
can't say it was much more than occasionally breezy here, though it
has to be said that winds are very rare in this region. And the
weather was on the wet side with a little drizzle.

The most noticeable thing was the overcast. I would have expected
misty weather. That would have been true had the cell active in the
Gulf of Mexico produced a respectable blow.

16th:
Forest fires and drought conditions still affect much of Central
Europe -at least they were shown on the same news bulletins that spoke
of the Peru Quake.

And on the 17th:
And as if one disaster after another were not bad enough, the rescue
party that went into a collapsed mine in Utah yesterday have
themselves fallen victim to a fresh collapse.

Any similarities?

was upgraded to a 6.5 which is about as good as it gets there.
(Doesn't preclude more though. But then this wild storm we were
supposed to have wasn't what we were supposed to have was it?)

Joint Typhoon Warning Center Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
Significant tropical weather advisory for the Indian Ocean.North
Indian Ocean area (Malay peninsula west to coast of Africa.)

At 11:06 z, tropical cyclone 06b was located near 10.0 N 92.3 E,
approximately 95 nautical miles SSW of the Andaman Islands and had
tracked WNW-ward at 02 knots over the past 6 hours. maximum sustained
winds were estimated at 35 knots gusting to 45 knots.

Looks like a rebirth of Peipah to me but what do I know?

That's two.

Note that when Peipah went ashore on Vietnam(?) there was a surge in
seismic activity in that region around New Zealand. I bet the same
thing happened in August if there were any Asian Pacific storms doing
that. I wonder what the other storms revealed as they hit the beach.

It might take some finding as MetO pages are notoriously crappy to
browse. Something to do with the IT crowd taking over the jobs of real
weather forecasters no doubt.

Meanwhile there was a storm predicted for the UK which did have very
high tides but the Caspian seems to have been hit hardest:

Some activity in the Indonesian volcanoes too:

The Anak Krakatau volcano spews ash and smoke in the Sunda strait of
Indonesia, November 10, 2007. Indonesia's "Child of Krakatau" volcano,
formed after Mount Krakatau's legendary eruption in 1883, has been
spitting out flaming rocks and smoke for days, but it is not
especially dangerous, a vulcanologist said on Friday.
