A change is on the way, with pressure rising markedly over the UK and, more
notably, over Scandinavia. Tuesday is the transition day, as pressure builds
strongly across the UK.

Actually, the transition starts tomorrow if not today as the spell for
the next phase is introduced.

There's likely to be some rain for northern and
western areas and that applies for the rest of the week too, as frontal
systems attempt to move in from the west. There's considerable disagreement
about the positioning and intensity of the high to the east or NE, with
SE'lies or easterlies more likely than NE'lies. Despite the possible
southerly component, it won't be as warm as it has been recently for the
bulk of the UK, with the possible exception of the NW of Scotland.

Anticyclonic to the west, probably the wrong side of the Mid Atlantic
Ridge, leaving conditions in Europe to dominate:

Dominate discussions and the hopeful fretting, that is.
It is a confused spell -or one that condemns me to perdition, for now.

BTW, there is a quake due when this catalysis ends.

Looks like we are in for a set of gales. Piers Corbyn was out by a
factor of one lunar phase.

The following are the dates that most closely correspond to the
present lunar phase, date.

Extra niceties to look for are the times of the spell for the closing
date in each set. These can be found at:

http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclips...se2001gmt.html

Where a series of dates run together such as 13th September to 13th
October 2002, somewthing I call a synergy takes place. Probably ending
in the largest magnitude earthquakes for that year. I have not yet
checked.


My thinking or the severe lack thereof, on the matter of matching
dates can be found in the thread entitled: "12:44"
(Some fool has given that a rating in Google Groups. It was probably
an accident, even so I am almost sure it wasn't me.)

Looks like the catalysis ended. At least, we had the quake and now a

So do I turn the heating on again? Looks like it is going to be sunny.

Wishful thinking:
"Hurricane Season Comes to a Close
Fourteen named storms formed in the Atlantic Basin this season - of
which six became hurricanes, including two major hurricanes. While the
U.S. was spared the season's worst, Central America was hit by two
destructive Category 5 hurricanes."

It will come to a close when I say it comes to a close. Looks like we

1100 am ast tue dec 11 2007

Warning extended westward along the north coast of Hispaniola... at 11
am ast...1500 utc...a tropical storm warning has been issued for the
north coast of Haiti from the border with the Dominican Republic
westward to the north-western tip of Haiti.

Olga is moving just south of due west near 15 mph, 24 km/hr and
expected to continue for the next 24 hours as forecast.

The centre is expected to pass very close to the southern coast of the
DR later today. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph...75 km/hr.
Little change in strength is expected today but some weakening is
likely tomorrow with strong upper-level winds.

[So what is the reason for not issuing wind speeds in knots I wonder?
Knots make it so easy to relate to spherical geometry.]

Olga's strongest winds are located well away from the center of
circulation, which is a characteristic of subtropical cyclones.

It is expected to produce additional rain accumulations of 2 to 4
inches over Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, with isolated maximum
storm total amounts of 12 inches. Amounts of 4 to 6 inches are
possible over Hispaniola with possible isolated maximum totals of 10
inches.

THESE RAINS HAVE ALREADY PRODUCED LIFE-THREATENING FLASH FLOODS AND
MUD-SLIDES IN PUERTO RICO.

Forecaster Franklin/Brown

A modicum of sobriety in respect for those in danger. Meanwhile is it
worth pointing out, I wonder, that the time of the phase when close to
6 o'clock tends to produce tropical storms in the North Atlantic.

Just as when the time of the phase tends to produce severe storms (as
opposed to the usual suspects) when that time of phase is near 7
o'clock.

Since the latitude of the storm is most likely dependent on the
declination of the moon and sun rather than the time of the phases,
that one hour difference is interesting.

(BTW, I put the heating on earlier today.)
