Virtually unforecastable as far as I know. But fortunately we have a
crib:
7th Feb 03:44; 14th Feb 03:34; 21st Feb 03:31. All very similar.

I ran the commentary for the first of those spells in with that of the
commentary for the previous one. Never mind, it is well worth reading
as even as I speak, thundery and wintery weather is crushing North
American crops at a very delicate time.

So if that High over Greenland persists and that Low just below it
moves up to Scandinavia like it is supposed to and like it seems to be
doing....

Not a good year for silage if anyone in Britain knows any farmers.
Even the hay is going to produce abortions -though there is a small
window in the middle of June. Otherwise it is a wet summer and we will
have to rely on other people getting super-cyclones and large
magnitude earthquakes.

Which they surely will.

OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - At least 19 people were killed in Missouri
and Oklahoma when tornadoes and violent storms ripped through the
central and southeastern United States, devastating neighborhoods and
injuring hundreds, officials said on Sunday.

The National Weather Service reported six deaths in Oklahoma and 13 in
Missouri but those tolls may rise.

And the earthquake related content is?

Sed quis custodiet ipsos Custodes?

Mississippi's water
When the river runs high
Bursts its banks and washes all the sins away
As it washes to the ocean
Every muddy thing
In a very little time
Before it will calm down

When something goes wrong
It's so hard to admit it
No one will admit it
Nobody wants to know

It pushes an High to the Delta
Over three thousand miles long
And throws out to the Gulf, a force so strong
Fixed so tight to the ground below
That you can't even see
And in so little time
So little time to be

When something goes wrong
You shall have to admit it
You will have to admit what
You do not want the world to see
But when you see that High
Running down the Mississippi
Though it's apt to confuse.
Because it is such an unusual sight
From the cold of Canada to the warmth of Mexico
Watch out for that High

Some people never see the world the way it runs
It's not their style
To be told
Some people never see the world how it aught to be
But like children they're longing to be told.

When something goes wrong
Who can admit it
Say that they **** it
Nobody wants to know
When something goes right
Well that's how it should be.
All caused by accident
That just accidentally got it right
You just get used to how it is supposed to be so right
Something so right

SENECA, Mo. (AP) — More than a third of the 23 people killed by a
tornado that smashed parts of Oklahoma and Missouri over the weekend
died in cars, troubling experts who say vehicles are one of the worst
places to be during a twister.

About 100 people have died in U.S. twisters so far this year, the
worst toll in a decade, according to the National Weather Service, and
the danger has not passed yet. Tornado season typically peaks in the
spring and early summer, then again in the late fall.

This could also prove to be the busiest tornado season on record in
the United States, though the final figure on the number of twisters
is not yet in.
All together, at least 26 people died in Missouri, Oklahoma, Georgia
and Alabama after the severe storms erupted Saturday over the Southern
Plains and swept east.

According to data from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction
Center, 49 of the 705 deaths — or about 7 percent — attributed to
tornadoes from 1997 to 2007 were people who were in vehicles when the
storm struck.

"They can cover more ground than you can in your car, so unless you
know you are moving away from the tornado the best thing you can do is
find a strong structure," said National Weather Service meteorologist
Andy Foster.

The twister that struck Seneca and surrounding Newton County was
moving at 50 mph to 60 mph, Foster said. One car was found a half-mile
from the tornado track.

The U.S. death toll from tornadoes this year is the highest since 130
people were killed in 1998, according to the weather service. The
highest number of tornado-related deaths came in 1953, when 519 people
died.

To date this year, 858 tornadoes have been reported in the U.S.,
although that number probably includes numerous duplicate sightings of
the same twister.

Harold Brooks of the National Severe Storms Laboratory said the
highest number of tornadoes ever recorded through May 11 of any year
was in 1999, when 676 tornadoes were counted. Brooks said he expects
the number of confirmed tornadoes through mid-May of this year to end
up in the 650-to-700 range.

From a different thread:

By extrapolation the phase from May 5th to 12th resembles that of
February 14-21. Bit of a squeak
I know but interesting no less:

So now to go and look all that stuff up. What is striking is the brunt
of the bad stuff back in February was also centred on China. it's the
only time news about the weather permeates the bamboo curtain.

There is an high leaving the continent of North America by way of the
southern US states. Florida to N & S Carolina. I allowed it might be
another large quake in the Andreanof region -wherever that is (I can't
find it on a map.) But for all I know it could be an eruption in
Hawaii. There is a storm out in the NE Pacific at the moment.

I can't make up my mind. Perhaps that means I don't know? See for
yourselves:

There were three lunar phase in February that were at more or less the
same time.

They somehow induced weather spells in China the produced intense
cold. I didn't have any weather data sites for the region. And going
by comment on this site given elsewhe
http://www.australianweathernews.com/charts/ASEA00.GIF I still don't.

So, is there anything in the record for Britain? You'd have a problem
sorting it out from he http://www.climate-uk.com There is nothing
cohesive that immediately stands out.

There again, I suppose water doesn't just drop from the sky.

And other people's weather from totally different climes has an effect
on us. As do seismic events and the like. It's a thankless and
difficult task to get it all sorted. And I think it impossible to
accomplish anything without divine help.

So why if I am getting help from above is he so meagre with the people
who really need it at the moment? It's enough to turn you off
religion. And yet we know from the way that things work, there has to
be a creator.

Is he angry with us over something? Some forgotten slight that we
didn't even mean? Our world wars and nuclear wars and all that? Maybe
it's the way we are treating the planet?

It couldn't possibly be due to the measure of respect we pay him.

No snow in the forecasts but it is cooler now and there is a prospect
of rain. I posted elsewhere about the chance of a quake in the
Aleutians due when an high on the US east coast leaves.

Looks like leaving. But one site shows a loop of many days and the
high joins onto the Azores/Bahamas High and elongates so that it hangs
around for ages. It might easily see this spell out.

I have learned that strange North Atlantic Low that prefigured the
Chinese quake, not to be so cock-sure about the precise behaviourof
weather patterns. hells bells I aught to have known better where I
suspected a large magnitude quake was involved.

I deserved the castigation the trolls gave me. The first rule of
weather lore is: Earthquakes upset weather patterns.

That's The Golden Rule. And because I forgot it, it is likely that no
lessons will be learned from either catastrophe that struck as the
weather pattern first changed then ended. If I were to be done to as I
have done by, the golden rule of human nature would have me cast out
of my home and left starving.

But I was doing my best to the degree that I saw it. But I suppose
even George Bush could say that. God don't damn me for a fool please.
(You can have George any time you want him.)
