5th to 12th May 12:18
This spell is the only one I have covered that is near it and it has a certain resonance: http://groups.google.com/group/sci.g...5d79a372a54a47 Spells at twelve and 6 o'clock tend to produce low overcast even misty weather in Britain. Of course with a Cat 4 running elsewhere things are going to be different for a while, perhaps we could knock 3 hours off it? 09:18. Something unstable and given to thunder. And in the USA more tornadic stuff. Looks like a continuum from the folowing, all the more so ifthe storm moderates and we have a spell more akin to 10:18 or whatever: When a flaccid set up pertains in the North Atlantic and the Lows don't behave the way that they are supposed to, expect: "The population of Chaiten in Chile has been evacuated after a volcano began to erupt, covering the town in ash. The volcano spewed ash and caused tremors in the region on Friday, forcing water supplies to be cut off, the authorities said. By Sunday the town, about 1,300km from Santiago, the capital, was covered in ash. It is the volcano's first eruption in at least 2,000 years, according to Sernageomin, a government mining and geology agency, and caused the Patagonian town of nearly 4,500 people to be emptied. Many evacuees travelled by boat to Chiloe Island to the north and Puerto Montt on the mainland." http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exer...6A-BFB8-2765B0... An interesting Low in the North Atlantic this. It wouldn't surprise me if it continued all through the next spell too. This morning a Cat 4 tropical storm appeared over Japan. No warnings from any agency I saw. Anyway the sun's coming out again after some drizzle yesterday. That Low after being stationary over the other side of the Mid Atlantic Ridge for a week moved quickly at the end of the last spell to Britain and with this spell has returned to the west it is now 35 degrees west and apparently filling. Which could mean another eruption and then it will probably move quickly west again. Wednesday looks favourite:http://www.westwind.ch/?link=ukmb,ht...e/Fax/,.gif,br... http://groups.google.com/group/alt.t...fa43bbaed378f# Though why it should moderate in 60 minute intervals is beyond me. Not that I am stating it as an axiom. Just a rule of thumb until brighter light is shone on the subject. |
