Default 12:18

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:

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."

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...

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.
