Therefore a change in the spell from the predictable to the actual of
5 hours is the equivalent of 5 billion tons of TNT per region
affected.

Hence the need to specify harmonics as per the question that started
this whole fracas off in the first place:

Which Low, as it happens, is still pending at 60 N 30 W:

Furthermore the two North Atlantic cells are of the same order of
magnitude. The High focussed at Oslo/Gothenburg and the Low at 55 N 35
W are both about 1 hour wide.


OK, they cover some 20 or 40 degrees but the actual diameter is
Gothenburg to Edinburgh, isn't that far off 15 degrees on a great
circle.


I like that coincidence. 15 degrees suits me.


That should have read radius from Gothenburg to Edinburgh. The
diameter is more like 15 degrees as if from Edinburgh to Helsinki.

Anyway, the last quake was nearly 18 hours back so we might be getting
another storm.


Ah well they upgraded that Japanese quake after downgrading it
earlier. So that was a 15/16 hour break. And severe winds in the New
England region. Hardly hurricane force but then what you gonna do
boudit?

Winter weather warnings on there too:

Pretty is as pretty does.
These may not be giving the information they are supposed to be doing
but if they are giving neat computer output from direct digital data
feeds, they are giving us notice of something else.

This first one for instance:
https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/efs/dynam...pac_gale_0.gif

is obviously advising us of the Cat 2 in the Pacific.

Apparently this one needs correcting:
https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/efs/dynam...atl_gale_0.gif


Without the corrections -which amount to erasure I imagine, it might
help us understand what data the system holds that might be being
overlooked.

No offence to anybody in particular but it seems to be a given for
satellite data.
Not that it makes all that much difference to weather forecasting but
who cares about weather forecasts? They are inaccurate over 5 days
either way.

Perhaps, with your record since 24th June, the weather forecasts are
FAR more accurate.

Still waiting for you to back your proposed links up with forecast
accuracy data.

You're struggling aren't you..........and this won't go away.

It is now the last day before the spell ends as far as the UK is
concerned. But the USA gets an imprint on things to come one day ahead
of us. Take a look at what is going on he
http://weather.unisys.com/images/sat_sfc_map_loop.html


If I had to rate that output in kilotons, I'd say:
A lot!

Which bodes ill for this next spell. Traditionally this month is one
for thunderstorms of great power in the UK, which is not saying much
by Congolese or Floridian standards. But it is a time that is
difficult for me to predict what an unstable spell is going to do. And
this one is bad enough.

12's and 6's are easily overridden by more powerful spells preceding
them, that spate of spells just gone is a fine example of that. Those
spells were nearly 10's -or if you give them their Weather Lore
denominations:
4's.

This next spell is near enough a 4 too. A classical one, no
interpretation, no extrapolation. So this set up is going to prove
interesting.

Meanwhile it is end-game for this spell, so keep on the watch for the
unexpected. For you know what to expect with the unexpected now, don't
you children?

It's an area of low pressure moving east across the USA - nothing
unusual in that at this time of year.
Tornadoes likely, nothing unusual in that at this time of year.

Well that is not surprising either, given their latitude. Especially
with the Congo being on/near the Equator.

Now this is a real classic.

You may be familiar with this site

http://www.hibberts.co.uk/collect2/tempres.htm

Are you aware of a place where they study this kind of theory?

I think it is in Nottinghamshire.

Near Retford. It is a nice part of the country, near what remains of
Sherwood Forest, and now much cleaner after the closure of those
awfully filthy nearby coal mines.

I'm sure there are many people there that will listen intently to what
you have to say.....

It is called Rampton.
