Spells.   
Just look at the set up over Iceland and Scandinavia at the moment,
then explain to me how a set up like that can last until they just
fade away.

Or do unlike pressure systems repell?

It realy isn't the fault of meteorlogy if you don't understand.

Jetstream, unusually, is heading south to north between UK and Iceland along
longitude 10 deg W or thereabouts and doing what it always does. Shepherding
the lows to its "nearside" and highs to its "offside" ie matching like
airflow directions at the juncture of contra-rotating systems.

This magical, very low pressure, high velocity, distant phenomenon,
despite the difficulties engendered in passing its impetus on to
perfect fluids, -not even liquids but almost immutable gasses, has
what ability to confirm rotation on these powerful air masses?

And not just rotation but direction?

How exactly is it that the cyclonic ones can occur near the equator
but seldom at the equator?

But first answer my question about the way they are separated. Or are
we all doomed to await enlightenment from that fool Dawlish?

We use both a 24 and a 12 hour clock.

We could use a 6 hour clock, if we had a mind or a reason to.

This year's lunar phases would look like this on such a clock face:

8	Jan	5	:	37
15	Jan	1	:	46
22	Jan	1	:	35
30	Jan	5	:	3

The spacings are from OOo Calc, I never bothered to correct. It might
come in handy for a future effort.

The point is, if as seems likely and with a great leap of missing
physics, these times are now easier to match.
The last 2 phases for example:
30th August 1:58
7th September 2:04

It's a leap of faith I know to ask anyone to follow me but I find it
interesting. The recent hurricanes for example seemed to have a lot in
common. Even the Lows off Britain for a while.

Had that last one hit Sea Area- Irish Sea rather than getting no
closer than Rockall / Shannon, we'd have had yet more floods. In fact
if it had got further south of Rockall I think it would have caused
flooding anyway.

But that's another spell.
God is I think being kind to us and allowing us to learn slowly.

I have been working on another idea relating to the time lapses of
earthquakes over 4.9 mag.

It appears to me that the intensities increase as the time between
them does. You might liken it to the physics of Impedance:

I = F/V

Impedance equals the force of the harmonics divided by the velocity of
the particles or fluid involved.

Or you could put it another way:
When there is little or no motion for a while, the bump when it does
get going -at the next quake, is going to be playing catch-up.

That's my hack for the hex. But heck, since we don't have a better
kludge....

And it relates to Hurricanes in that the greater the time difference
the greater the intensity of a tropical storm -should any arise.

And is reduced according to how close a so called aftershock takes
place.
(Except that this last lot has so far failed to produced anything
serious, though a Mag 7 is still on the cards. Probably when Ike is
finally decommissioned.)

One I still have to look at is when two large quakes occur at a great
interval with no other quakes intruding. Which is what happened
recently. Work in progress.

May we take that as a sort of forecast? If a mag 7 happens, you will
be the first to tell us that is exactly what you foretold. People who
make forecasts based on poor science, but never return to their
forecasts when wrong, always do; Piers Corbyn, Joe Bastardi and a host
of other cold winter-searchers (apologies to the few that always
return to their forecasts and analyse them), do the same on a regular
basis. They only remind you of their successes and they publish no
records of accuracy. You've been expecting a mag 7 earthquake for well
over a month. So have I. In fact I forecast one, based on
probabilities, just over a month ago on this ng. It hasn't happened.
0/7, 0% over a month, for me. Hopeless eh? mind you, we both missed a
7.0 mag in Japan, by 0.1 mag! Shame, just a teensy, weensy bit more
and I'd be sitting on 100% and you'd be claiming you forecast it.

There are, on average, 17 earthquakes per year of 7.0mag, of over. You
know that. Again, I'll forecast that one occurs in the next month,
somewhere in the world. They occur randomly and the precise location
and strength is not predictable.......yet. One day they may be
predictable, but I doubt hugely whether it will be down to the odd
theories that you propagate. That's doubt, never a certainty.

The likelihood is that a mag 7 will occur in the next month. Predict
it with a reasonable timespan and a fairly accurate location. That's
not much to ask, but please don't come back on here telling us it
happened because of the demise of a hurricane Ike, if you aren't
prepared to actually forecast it will happen before the event.

Forecasts can only be verified by accuracy at outcome. Making vague
hints and then trying to claim you got it right, will not cut any
mustard with anyone.

Here's your chance. Predict us an earthquake. It appears that you feel
one is about to occur. Where? How big? When?

One other rule of thumb with them, which in my not very humble seems
to remove them from the prison of plate theory altogether, is that
earthquakes tend to occur over a circle of the earth that is just in
or outside the so called shadow zone.

There is a recent series pinned up at the NEIC > 5 list ATM. (Or do I
mean the < 5 list? I always get them mixed up.)

It's one thing to declare that shadow zones indicate the activity and
make up of the part of the earth that we have never been to and are
unlikely to visit shrtly.

It is quite another to maintain the theory at the expense of the lives
of those most desperate for our help.

Well, my help. The rest of you might as well be Dawlish for all the
difference it makes. So stuff the lot of you.

Re: Spells.   
Turbulence arises in  boundary layers when the rate of shear within
the layer becomes large enough. The onset can reduce drag on
obstacles, at which point the boundary layers separateat the places of
least resistance.

This is the wake of the disturbance where the boundary layer becomes
turbulent  The separation of flow forms as eddies smaller than the
original shear wave.

Turbulence in the boundary layer imposes a drop in the drag
coefficient when the Reynolds number is about 3 × 10^5.

For example:
The dimples on golf balls encourage such turbulence to drop drag
effects in the boundary layer. The claim is made that shagreen has the
same effect for sharks and the process was utilised in some rough hewn
boats in ancient times, a process partially utilised in race-craft
today with stepped hulls.

(Not quite the same thing.)

Now suppose that the explanation for the increased velocity of sound
in solids is akin to the motion of fluids. What attenuation takes
place? There is no rarefaction or the opposite is there?

I wouldn't book an holiday to experience one on the strength of it
but
it did turn up something of interest.


Well, that was a great run out. We all must do this again sometime. I
want to thank you all for your input. The insights were fascinating.

If you bothered to read all that (I did, sad case that I am, as I was
searching for an actual forecast - don't try looking for that, there
isn't one) you'll realise why so very few people pay any attention
whatsoever to these theories, or to W. I almost pity him. Now that's
saying something.

What I am trying to get at but having some difficulty in doing so is
that the relative differences in spells for quakes or storms is
acoustic.

Not least among the difficulties in  that is one imposed by
perception. Frequency or pitch varies with the intensity apparently.
High pitches grow higher with loudness whilst low pitches seem to grow
lower.

Not that I think that can be a major factor in diagnosing spells. Or
not, as the case may be. >
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/sound/pitch.html

Have I mentioned already that both weather and earthquake phenomena
occur on the same same circles for any given spell? I can't be
bothered checking and anyway, I have stated the fact now.

While earthquakes occur one after the other in places that are
something just over the far side of each other's shadow zones, storms
tend to occur in the middle of those very zones.

Which phenomena is in keeping with the origin of the spells in the
first place. Which as you all know by now, is the interplay of the
earth, sun and moon.

Just how the conversion of inertia, dynamics and acoustics takes place
is at the moment beyond describing.

Though no doubt my pet dog in its omniscience will have more to say on
the subject.

One thing I am certain of though is that criticality of the Reynolds
number -or something closely akin to it, has a marked effect on these
weather spells.

I thought the long lasting gap between the Scandinavian and Azores
highs was odd but it is nothing to the low in the NW  North Atlantic
at the moment: >

http://www.cuckney.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/weather/Dorridge.htm

Do like pressure gradients create an unlike one? It could seem logical
if you didn't know a more likely cause. Two circulating air masses in
close proximity would pile up another air mass between them.

So two lows would create and high. And two highs would create an even
higher.

Someone working on the same thing as I but using it for purposes that
I dread:

http://www.google.com/search?q=John%20Alden%20Knight

The short term aspect of this is that the users of his method might
have better hunting.

The long term effect of this is that if the short term effect isn't
carefully monitored and licensed, the users will have no decent
hunting.

So it is with me wondering how the insurance people would mistreat
those in most need of insurance.

But we have already seen how unkempt the insurance and banking
industry is and anyone relying on "The City" in times of distress are
going to have a bumpy ride.

Besides which most of the damage that has to happen has already been
done.

From the middle of the last century the move towards building houses
on drained marshlands grew out of control.

The result is that now we have extremely expensive property built on
land that relies on drainage that might fail in regions that are
subject to periodic storms that wash out even deep foundations.

And big business and insurers have allowed all this, even encouraged
it.

There is no salvation for anyone who has bought such property on
trust.

Where was the salvation for the world's animals when white settlers
moved into great plains all over the colonies?

Investments tend to move on out of control. If you have bought a pig
with lipstick on, sell the pig and eat the pork.

Move on and next time build a house by digging a lot deeper. Lay a
decent foundation upon the rock-mass. Then, when a flood comes and the
river rises against that house it won't shake it

Otherwise you will get stuck in a rut of more repair and further
damage... like a man who built a house upon the ground without a
foundation. Against it the river dashed, and immediately it collapsed,
and the ruin of that house became great.

2000 years of fairly obvious words of wisdom later and what have we
accomplished?

Global warming? Really?

What I aught to do now is have a look at all the charts for the North
Atlantic to see how one spell differs from another.

I have the feeling that in the absence of any major tropical storms in
the second week of January, things would run pretty much as they are
doing now -save for the fact that the Lows wouldn't be heading up into
the Arctic.

I have just got hold of the charts from the first three months of the
year. (Boy that wasn't fun!) Running them on Windows Fax Viewer I saw
immediately that the phase that started with the15th, not the 8th, was
the one that sends the Lows up the Denmark Strait.

Which explains why only one Low has gone up there so far this week. (A
left-over from last week's spell.) The phases for the 15th and the
22nd of January are vaguely similar. (Something like 6 hours
different.)

And Low and behold their affect on the weather is similar.

Who's a clever boy then?

(Yes Dawlish is. (Good boy.))

It is. But it was such a PITA getting the charts downloaded that I
can't be bothered with them now.

I think what it is is that they are so confusing when they don't do
what I want them to do.

Then there are the jumps the lows make when they reach about 5 mb
either side of that magic 975 mb. pressure centre. I know there are
earthquakes involved but I can't be bothered going looking for them.

Once they fall off the recent NEIC, charts they too become a PITA to
play with.

Ooyah!

I lost a load of them around the middle of May so I took another look
at the site and found an easier way to fish for them:

I just got the list of these from the server:
/080501_0000_analysis.gif

And stuck them to the prefix:
http://homepages.see.leeds.ac.uk/~lecimb/met/metoffice
using Calc and Writer:

Now let's see Google boil the bag:
