Strange Again

January 26th, 2014


Signals have been odd for some period of time.  Maybe like for the last week.  Hearing both SD and SB in some spots and then hearing neither at some time later at the same spot.  Then at other times, like last night, both seemed weak at the best spot for hearing them.

Somewhat Weak

July 22nd, 2014; 0130

Though a reported high-pressure system is working its way back off the continent, SD signals seem relatively week over the last day or so with SB appearing in odd places as well.

Normal Still, I Guess. But What Is Normal?

March 30th, 2014

Went to check the signals tonight because I thought they had weakened.  But it seems the signals are of normal strength but not as strong as they can become in recent times.  But it occurred to me that I no longer really know what normal is anymore.  I’m beginning to doubt that I ever really will know for sure either – without some small miracle or specialized equipment, anyhow.  No one else seems even aware; let alone do they apparently care.  Apparently not the paradigm-laden tornado research experts in places like Oklahoma and the likes. 

The signals kind of seem all over the place today.  I don't know if this is because of interference from the sun or the approaching storm/ fluctuating barometer.  It could be either or neither, I suppose.  :(

Weak Again

March 28th, 2014.  Early AM

Signals have been week over the last few days (SD), but maybe not unusually weak (not really sure anymore).  I think it’s due to the passing lows, I gotta figure.  But pressure has been rising a bit over last few days too - even with the weakened signals.  So, could be interesting.

To a Productive Use…

May 9th, 2013 (A.M.)

Over the course of the last several days, Diego has been singing loudly and at other times not singing at all.  Barbara also seems to be of varying strength but generally still impressive.  Odd set of signals with the River opposing Barbara in places not expected nor heard before - and even the River with Barbara with the Angels appearing and then disappearing time and time again.  

Think about converting and focusing all that destructive energy to a productive use…, I often do.   :)

Record Low Number of Tornadoes for July, 2012.

August 31^st, 2011

It was widely reported that the number of tornadoes across the nation last month was the lowest number ever recorded for the month of July.  Coincidently (or in keeping with my theory), tonight my monitored (snapshot) signals seemed to be as strong as I ever remember.  It seems that the stronger the signals, the less likelihood of the appearance of tornadic storms downwind in the nation’s heartland. 

Unfortunately, I was unable to monitor July’s signal conditions as I was on the east coast for most of that month.  However, before I headed east, I recall the signals were becoming steadily stronger.  I suspect the signals were strong during the month of July as well.

Tornado in City of Philadelphia, PA

Fox 29 (WTXF, Fox 29 News at 10) in Philadelphia and the NWS are reporting that an F-0 ("F-0," "F-Zero") tornado touched down in Northeast Philadelphia a few hours ago. Other than destroying some roofs (a beer/liquor distributorship), making a mess, and causing some general havoc, no injuries were reported. Winds were reported to be in excess of 75 miles an hour, the tornado was reported to be 30 to 50 feet wide, and the tornado survived on the ground for a duration of approximately 20 seconds. Being in the greater Phila. area this evening, and as they seemed to have done several times in the past, maybe the tornado gods were saying hello to me in their own special way? :)

The Finger of God – A Tornado

March 21st, 2010


A tornado may well be the finger of God. If not in a literal sense, such certainly qualifies in a metaphysical sense, anyhow.

Would He unleash such havoc with absolutely no warning? Or maybe more likely, would He give us a forewarning that was dependent on our knowing where to look to read the warning signs?

PS. Not that I mean to necessarily proselytize here, but I kind’a think any possible tornado warnings may come from Saint Barbara and Saint Diego/Saint Didacus of Alcalá. (From Wikipedia: ‘Blessed Santa Barbara, Your story is writ in the sky,’ from Federico García Lorca's play, La Casa de Bernarda Alba (1936); and Saint Didacus/Diego being known for solitude and healing.) Also, did someone once say something about affection for Saint Michael too?
