Good morning folks. Had some above average rumblings off the California coastline; some said these hit 5-magnitude. Not far from Lima, Peru we had a solid mid-5 pointer, and took a couple similar tremors in the West Pacific and a bit inland.

Some northern areas made up for almost a month of monsoon in half a week. The convergence still dropping precipitation southward, dropped a tornado yesterday as well. Northern Australia and Northeast-facing Queensland coastline have the severe weather tonight.

Europe has fewer severe watches than previous weeks. The big low still spans the Atlantic, and the influences thinned in kind. Only a few moderate warnings to take in this afternoon for you guys.

Pre-sunrise USA shows most of the precipitation derived from that central low creeping over Texas. The severe watch area is dotted, cuts through Arkansas. You can watch 24 hours of development off that convergence 'here' [cloud animation]. Then, out west, the low is sitting, never flitting, still is sitting on that floating Pacific palace just outside our chamber door. [Semi-quote from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven"

Cosmic rays continue with strange readings, although neither shows large deviations from a flat line over time. The main difference is that we see bi-directional streaming of force and energy along both directions of the initial line, identified two days ago in the news addendum. The initial burst was unquestionably from just south and to the right of Aquarius. But now we see that the exact opposite direction plays a function too, which makes much more sense given that the Earth is somewhat open to the galaxy in that direction, if you will; no planets behind us.

Yellow, the solar wind speed, is dropping as we exit a speedier solar wind stream from a coronal hole. You can see the Fluxgate showing decreased pressure on the magnetosphere; plasma has stopped significant penetration into the ionosphere; inductions from captured energy are disappearing; energetic flux is returning to a smooth curve; and the 'Kp index' has moved well below storm levels.

Focus here is the green and the red coronal openings; they extend closest to the equator. And if a tilt opens up the green today, we could have a significant quake, but I'm much more focused on the back side of the red; it's still a few days away.

Earth Footprint is near dead center on the north. Looking over on the right we see almost all magnetic connectivity at that location.

Here are the active regions. And while we do have four beta spots, 'this' is the only story. Earth-facing quiet anomaly has lasted pretty much since November 2011. Let's see what you got. Leaving you with the Sun and the planets...Eyes open, no fear, it's 5:55 AM Eastern Time and that's the news. Be safe everyone.
