As far as mist, fog, drizzle or any other weather was present, you would need to see the local weather observations at the time. I noticed in Britain last year we got foggy weather commensurate with tropical storms out east somewhere. It hasn't been so noticeable this year, not by any means. Or was it in 2005 that the coincidence was marked? I can't remember. Something on it he http://groups.google.com/group/uk.sc...ists+typhoons# It's 3 am here and I am too tired to try and understand what my point was in the thread. It looks like I was having a fit again. And I hadn't any understanding of your tornado stuff. And that Carolinas effect is a recent discovery too. So don't worry over it. A bunch of tornadoes from a large super cell is the equivalent of a hurricane or a major earthquake a Mag 7 or so. When the weathermen are right and I am wrong it will be a storm and when I am right and they are wrong it will be a quake is a rule of thumb you could watch for. |

From that link: On Oct 5 2006, 3:18 am, "Weatherlawyer" wrote: Weatherlawyer wrote: John Hall wrote: In article .com, Weatherlawyer writes: I shall have to do these years: Snow began to fall in January and then "it froze most days & every night till February 16 ... February 2 when the Ice was thickest I found it 11.5 In. thick in a pond ... The Effects of this frost were many & destructive...". how can I tell it wasn't a negative NAO? Anticyclonic weather typically produces mist at morning and evening. Deep cold in Britain requires what we call a Scandinavian High. Snow needs that too plus an Icelandic Low. Icelandic Lows are a normal course of events similar to the Azores / Bermudan High. Anything on the database for hurricanes that year? Or large mag earthquakes? These can change the way a spell performs. There is only so much force in train on the planet at any one time. If it is being used by a super- typhoon it isn't going to be holding the line in Britain the way it should. I suppose that the Admiralty might have records of hurricanes that affected RN ships. I believe it was standard practice for naval vessels to include weather info in their logs. I don't think hurricanes were understood in the 18th century. I believe the word used might have still been "tempest". The Frost in the winter 1739-40 was remarkable, being both Long, Severe, & Settled, but was made more remarkable by the very backward, dry, & cold season which followed it, & was more destructive than the Frost itself. The Autumn 1739 was mostly cold, with frequent Rimy mornings. The wind being mostly Northerly all October, but there was no settled frost till November 7, when there came one for 10 days, which was sharp for the time of year. It froze .9 of an inch in a whole day in this frost, & the greatest thickness of the ice was 3.1 inches... ...at the end of December it grew colder and began to freeze December 25 at night, the wind being ENE ... December 30 in the day time it froze an inch; & in night after 2.5 inches. and December 31 the Thermometer was fallen to [-4 C°], which is far lower than I ever before saw it, though if the Thermometer had been out of doors it would probably have fallen still lower.... Snow began to fall in January and then "it froze most days & every night till February 16 ... February 2 when the Ice was thickest I found it 11.5 In. thick in a pond ... The Effects of this frost were many & destructive...". http://www.lyndon-estate.co.uk/04%20...20Figures/Thom...

Inaccuracy being measured in hours and minutes. (I think.) 3 Jan 02:04 A. (Anticyclonic) 9 Jan 17:21 A. Also the possibility of mists. Therefore the likelihood of tropical storms having occurred in which case the local weather would have been affected. However what has turned this into something interesting is that the repetition is similar to those of the phases we are having from this year to the middle of 2010. 16 Jan 18:04 C. (Col) 24 Jan 23:06 A. 1 Feb 12:53 L. (Low) 8 Feb 04:49 A. 15 Feb 13:18 L. 23 Feb 16:24 R. (Ridge of high pressure or the A to the west of the UK.*) Also the possibility of mists. I was trying to use a shorthand code to indicate what I thought the weather would do according to the phase. Today, instead of using the term "Col" which is accurate enough in some places, I'd use the term instability or Unstable Spell. I think I believed that the times of 4~ and 10~ were the same as or closely similar to 2~ and 8~ of the clock. TBH, I'm not sure what I think now. 2 Mar 21:03 9 Mar 16:49 17 Mar 09:35 Also the possibility of mists. 25 Mar 06:31 Also the possibility of mists. 1 Apr 03:40 Also the possibility of mists. 8 Apr 05:24 Also the possibility of mists. 16 Apr 05:13 23 Apr 17:24 Also the possibility of mists. 30 Apr 09:54 7 May 18:46 15 May 22:41 Also the possibility of mists. 23 May 01:54 29 May 16:48 6 Jun 09:07 14 Jun 13:03 21 Jun 09:07 28 Jun 01:20 Also the possibility of mists. 6 Jul 00:21 14 Jul 00:12 20 Jul 16:04 27 Jul 12:22 Also the possibility of mists. 4 Aug 15:52 12 Aug 08:48 Also the possibility of mists. 18 Aug 23:40 Also the possibility of mists. 26 Aug 02:35 Also the possibility of mists. 3 Sep 06:51 10 Sep 15:48 Also the possibility of mists. 17 Sep 08:41 24 Sep 20:06 2 Oct 20:47 9 Oct 22:20 Also the possibility of mists. 16 Oct 19:54 24 Oct 16:12 Also the possibility of mists. 1 Nov 09:35 8 Nov 05:26 Also the possibility of mists. 15 Nov 10:01 23 Nov 13:07 30 Nov 21:37 Also the possibility of mists. 7 Dec 14:03 15 Dec 03:12 23 Dec 08:45 30 Dec 09:09 I obviously never bothered filling all the spells in just the ones that gave rise to mists. 3~ and 9~ o'clock phase times normally bring thundery weather. Or at least humid stuff. *This could mean dry weather depending on the declination of the moon. But the SE of England tends to get wet weather from France in these conditions. The North Atlantic was extremely negative that year and there would have been a number of serious volcanic eruptions along with a late start to the Hurricane season. (Which hurricanes would have tended to divert through the Azores to the Barents Sea.) There would have been a lot of activity in the Aleutians. It is semi desert these days but then would have been virtually uninhabited I imagine. Unless the place was populated by people who had no defence against influenza. Early contact with them might have given them avian~ or Spanish~ flu. So who knows? Seriously devastating storms would have struck the Philippines and Vietnam as well as China and various other places susceptible to typhoons- as has been noted this year.) This year was 2006. Now I have realised what causes the negativity of the NAO, I shall not be able to sleep tonight. Thanks John! I hadn't got it quite right then but I was getting there. I'll do the actual forecast some other time. But it won't be anywhere near accurate if I am correct about the NAO. But at least that will show up in the records. Of course if the blighter lived in the SE of England his records will not fit the code which is based on the North West of England and North Wales's weather tendencies. It will now. Perhaps if I just have a stab at placing the air masses.... ...Oh Bloody Hell! He lived near Peterborough. :http://www.lyndon-estate.co.uk/ Peterborough is in the Fenns -our version of the Mississippi Delta. Mostly drained now and suffering from erosion, the region was once a controlled water margin with housing built on jetties, the people living on fish. Drained from Roman times it became a peat marsh. Then with powered mills, a low lying area. Windmills were in use in the 18th century. Electrical pumps are used today. They grow tulips and crocuses the http://maps.google.com/maps?q=saffro...num=1&ct=image It is a region of mists still. In the good old days, things would have been a lot mistier. |

Could you please give me the English page? It doesn't appear to have one. I take it you tried deleting sections of the URL until you got as far back in the server as you could go? And tried the Home Page? There are some good links on there but again they are in Spanish. Perhaps if you found a useful phrase that you could plug into Google or a search engine of your choice you could find a translation of the page required? Something like this: "Aviso de Ciclón Tropical" For Google, you need to include the quotation marks as the search parameters will hold together better that way.
