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.

Back to the Norm
January 7th, 2015
As of last night, the signals seem to have been back to normal over the last two days or so. With the exception of some minor weakened signals yesterday, SD seems to be of a fairly strong signal strength. High pressure currently seems to be dominating in the area and during the last two days or so also.

Odd Combinations
December 28th, 2014
There have been odd signal combinations over this passing
long Christmas Holiday weekend. SD started
out strong but now seems weakened but still manages to push through, weak as it
is (a weakness which I would not have predicted by the higher than normal
pressures over this timeframe). However,
often at the same time SB can be heard across the middle in locations where one
would only expect to hear one or the other, at best; as usually SD would tend
to dominate at that location. It’s
almost as if the scenario changes from moment to moment, to some extent. But SD is still weak, regardless. It doesn’t seem in keeping with any
directional forces of the passing and approaching pressure systems – which seem
to be following odd paths, according to the 11 o’clock nightly news. What’s more, the pressure has not been very
low or nearly as low as expected for as weak as SD is being heard – which might
normally signal problematic air masses for the heartland, according to my
model/hypothesis/theory. (But maybe it’s
the delta/change in pressure that matters, as I postulated before, nevertheless
and not really the signal strength.) But
I do wonder if the reported solar flares that happened at the beginning of the
weekend may have had any effect on the situation.

Up and Down
Dec. 23rd, 2014
Over the last day or so, signals have been one way then the other way with one dominating then the other. Pressure has been fluctuating abit but not really all that much, ultimately. Slightly strange situation as to the signals, I would venture to say. Maybe some type of combination of the low that passed with any high that's over head with another low system approaching - or something anyhow.

Validation, Correlation, or Do I have the Answer?
December 21st, 2014
An article in yesterday’s Los Angeles Times seemed to show a
validation of my tornado-tamer theories of which I don’t usually explain in
full. The article suggested that birds
appear to have an innate tornado detector device.
If anyone doesn’t understand the correlation or how this fact could be a
potential validation of my tornado theories, just ask me.
See: Nature's own
tornado detector saves migrating birds, study finds

Of course, I could have told you this about birds
sensing potential tornadic energy anyhow, because of the couple of my high-school
years that I spent in Iowa. Whenever
there was a tornado warning, not a bird could be seen or heard anywhere. (Mind you, this was back in the days when
tornado warnings were really something of significance because it meant a
tornado was on the ground in the region – unlike many of the tornado warnings of today).

A Return to Normal?
December 21st, 2014
Weird signals of late.
Over the last two days or so, SB was appearing across the middle while
at the same listening location SD concurrently appeared at the low end. I think I have only heard such a combination
at that secondary listening location once before that I can remember. It all seemed rather weird as the low
pressure system had already passed and the pressure was rising or had risen over
the prior few days. I am unsure if
directional forces could have been a factor or not – but I didn’t think so at
the time as we were then experiencing the ‘back side’ of the low pressure system
which had passed on into the continent and would then move things to the north which
would favor hearing SD only maybe, at least typically. If anything, with the higher pressure that
was present over the last few days, the signals should have been more normal
yesterday rather than today. I didn’t blog
about it until today because I wasn’t sure what to say about it, if anything.
