JUNE 2014 Weather Report and 

the News Significant

                                    ABSTRACT

Three 1000 year old statues smuggled out of Cambodia in 1970 after hacking off from their bases, during a civil war, being returned away from auction houses, from USA. “Rohini Karthe” from 25 May morning up to 6p.m on June 7, 2014 gave an intense heat wave in Andhra region in spite of the one hour heavy showers on 1 June and on 3 June evenings that only added to the sweltering heat. “Mrigashirarasi” from morning 3AM on 9 June gave a respite from the scorching Sun. But from 10 June to 14 June the scorching Sun troubled people and on 15 June morning there was no supply of Curd in the milk booths at Maharanipeta, though the day was cloudy but no rain. The swirling pattern in the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) caused by gravitational waves and detected by the BICEP2 telescope. PSLV launched on 30 June around 9h52m A.M. Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle–C2 almost 44.4meters tall dedicated as gift from India to our neighborhood that launched five satellites one each from France, Germany and Singapore and two from Canada. Around 20 minute launch mission turned to be a good success. Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi watched the launch. He praised the cost-effective launch and complimented our Indian Space Program.

INTRODUCTION

BRAIN INSIDE THE SKULL

Several thousand basic tasks of conscious and subconscious brain life proceed all under the coordinated control effort of roughly 86billion neurons and an equal number of governing cells all inside the human skull. Genetic activity points to the wiring among the neurons rather than genetic activity within the cells.

Combined Solar Devices

       Carbon nanotubes absorb sunlight which converts the entire solar spectrum to heat. This heat then flows into a photonic crystal made up of silicon and silicon dioxide. When it achieves 1000⁰C it begins to glow, emitting photons of a wavelength that exist matched with the photovoltaic cell kept below generating electricity. Process of light into heat and then back heat into light is a novel step but it needs to achieve sufficient efficiency.

Higgs Particles decay to Fermions

       Direct decay of 125GeV Higgs boson into fermions, such as pairs of W, Z and photons, declared in Nature Physics on line. Website note of ATLAS also reported a similar observation. Higgs gives coupling by decay fermions, in addition to the weak gauge bosons. Higgs going into tau-anti-tau and as well into b--anti-b has been thought. The Standard model fails to explain why the Higgs Boson mass is light enough to have been observed at the LHC.

MIGRATORY BUTTERFLIES’

            The North American yellow-and-black monarch butterfly migrates every winter from Southern Canada to Mexico in search of milkweed to lay eggs, and it is now found, Nature Communications, that like many birds and sea turtles are aided by inclination geo-magnetic compass. Proteins called CRY in the butterflies’ antennas that activate this inclination when UV fell on it.

CAR HEAD LIGHTS

            R8 LMX car model uses lasers and a video camera. Once the car is above 37mph speed the integrated system keeps a watch on the road and monitors.

COLLISION THEORY- CREATION OF MOON

          German scientists claim that a massive collision between Earth and a planet, given a name “theia”, created Moon some 4.5Million years ago. Studying rock samples from Moon they found a distinct chemical signature of the original planet-sized object. It centered on measuring the ratios of isotopes of oxygen, titanium, silicon and others. They contradicted the existing theoretical models and hence the new theory.

Noctilucent Clouds

The first Noctilucent Clouds (NLCs) of the northern season were noticed on May 24^th before sunrise the telltale electric-blue ripples over Kiel.  Ground-level sightings followed soon thereafter--first on May 30th and then on June 3^rd in Germany.

Harvest of Solar Energy

Rare phenomenon of a chemical reaction responsible for propelling microscopic crystals to leap distances up to hundred times, of their own size, when exposed to Ultra Violet light has been suggested as a possible harvest of Solar Energy.

ASTRONMERS DISCOVER ROCKY EARTH

            It weighs about 17 times Earth, termed Kepler 10c circles about its Sun in about 45 days. It is situated about 560Ly away in constellation Draco. It has positive indications of life!

METAL MEDICINE

        Constitution of body is studied before administering the drug. Rasa Medicine (a branch of Ayurveda) treatments are affordable compared to Ayurveda. 12 metals are  used which include Iron, Zinc, Lead, Tin, Mercury, Brass and Bronze plus minerals and gems plus corals like conch shells, pearls, oyster and toxic herbs says mother, Dr.K.P.Krishanaprabha, of the Doctor Shaslkumar Nechiyil. (Graduated from Kottakkal Ayurveda College, Kerala) The bhasmams are purified and metals and minerals are used in minute dosages.  Karalmanna in Palakkad district with a 300 meter walk down a Main road has the Siddesitionalwara Drugs. Leela purifies mercury in a traditional stone grinder, Safiya makes Vanga bhasmam, deft hands of women beside her prepare Kaseesa bhasmam, with bright blue flames in a corner worker Manikandan says we are producing Sidhamakaradwajam which cures neurological complaints. (News in Sunday express Dateted Sunday 22 June)

METAL FROM SPACE

            Devandhra Mewari (dmewari@yahoo.com) (2014, p.28 June Dream 2047) observed in Hindi writing that 15000 years ago a meteorite fell in Chinga river valley at the border of Siberia and Mongolia and a statue of Buddha about 24cm high and weighing 10.6Kg was made around 1000 years ago in Tibet. They called the “Iron Man”. See Fig. A. This statue was seized by Ernest Schafer (who travelled the Himalayan land to know the origin of the Aryan race) prior to Second World War, from Tibet and reached Germany. The statue is made of iron and nickel and has a Swastika mark. Below the belt there was a dagger. In 2007 it was put on auction and it disappeared from view.

             There is a verse in Athar-Veda praying for protection from meteorites and meteors.

EARTH’S LARGEST WATER RESERVOIR

            It exists 643km in a mantle rock, underneath North America. May not be in familiar liquid water form but its ingredients are bound up in the rocks. Plate tectonics possibly hold the water to exist at such great depths.

Rotorua in New Zealand

            Geo-thermally heated pools, pink and white terraces of Rotorua in Taupo Volcanic zone and (stone) jade, mineral rich mud offers a glorious spa experience in this country. Terraces protecting the pools were razed down in 1886 with Mount Tarawera eruption, but the water retained its potential medicinal value to cure skin and joint conditions. Smoking geysers spouting steam at will but you can take home the magical water, packaged mud in the form of soaps, scrubs, bath salts, and mud packs etc. Scientific activity to wow at supervised public and private baths to “ahhh” about them. Each bath contains 70kgs of rich geo-thermal mud a little smoothed over your body while people soak in the pool. After 20 minutes in mud, a dip in sulfur rich water in an adjacent bath. Smell of sulfur is strong but doesn’t affect you. Temperature is 40⁰C that help skin spores to open up, and facilitates exfoliation. Locals are the Mori Tribe flourishing in the process.      

OBSERVATIONS

CAMBODIA RECEIVED 1000YR STATUES

            Three 1000 year old statues smuggled out of Cambodia in 1970 after hacking  off from their bases, during a civil war, being returned away from auction houses, from USA.

The Visakhapatnam

The Visakhapatnam received its first one hour rain with thunder and lightning on 1 June 2014 evening around 5h30PM. Again there was a rain on the 3^rd night but lasted few minutes only. In spite of the rains the heat of the summer season extended to 20 days of June month is formidable.

Monsoon shifted towards sea instead of land, resulting in the hot weather in Visakhapatnam, with the monsoon should strike on 9 June but not certain till to-day 24 June. No rainfall in the nine coastal districts of AP.

MONSOON PROGRESS & NORTH HEAT WAVES

            Monsoon to hit Kerala on the Friday 6, June 2014, and may set over Tamil Nadu and Bay of Bengal during the next 24 hours. Jaipur hottest in 33 years at 46.3⁰C, Allahabad at 46.1⁰C and Delhi touched 44.7⁰C. Heat wave is gripping north. Faizabad, Lucknow, Bareilly, Moradabad, Jhansi, Agra and Meerut divisions are reeling under heat wave. It continued unabated with temperatures of 48.2⁰C in Uttar Pradesh Bandah district on Wednesday 11 June, 47.3⁰C in Agra, and Delhi at 43.6⁰C.

NORTH INDIA HEAT WAVE

       

Capital reached the 47⁰C mark and climbing the highest since 200m. Palam Airport recorded 47.2⁰C on Friday and heat wave soaring between 46 to 48.4⁰C all over north in Patiala, Haryana, Chandigarh, Lucknow and Allahabad. The May 30 storm damaged in the North, several Electric poles resulting in Power cuts are over 7 to 8 hours a day.

ROHINI KARTHE

The evening of Saturday June 07, 2014 gave a relief of the intense Sun’s heat of the period from 25 May to June 07, 2014. The period is regarded in Hindu Astronomy as a ROHINI KARTHE of (about 15 days) the hottest days of the year. It ended with the beginning of Mrigashira Rasi at that time. June 8 (Birth Day of Late Kotcherlakota Amarnath B. Sc. (Special, Physics) B. E.(Civil) M. Tech (Soil Mechanics) father of Dr. K. Suhasini, Assistant Professor in USA) is relatively cool and nice. In the evening of 8 June it was scorching heat till late night.

Mrigashira Rasi

Mrigashira Rasi brought the rains and on June 9 at 3AM the heavy monsoon rain struck Visakhapatnam and it rained with lightning and heavy thunders up to 4.30AM. Up to night the cloudy rainy weather continued with no Sun light at all during the day.

The Hot Days

Formation of a cyclonic storm Nanauk in Arabian Sea and moved luckily to Oman coast. The southwest monsoon was rendered inactive due this cyclone.  So, on 10 June 2014 the SUN’S heat has been felt with the full Sunshine throughout the day, except for two hours in the evening when cold breeze delighted the people. 11 June began with cloudy weather in the morning but the blazing sun began by 8AM it subsided in the evening around 6.PM. The Sunny days would be for another three days till Friday 13 June when Monsoon rains may reach Visakhapatnam. The 12 June heat wave started around 10.AM and unbearably hot it was. Scorching summer Waltair, Visakhapatnam recorded 40.4⁰C the highest in three years. The humidity was lowest at 47% due less moisture content. 13 June early morning was pleasant with the clouds and cool weather. Prediction of Monsoon was not that much promising since the night rain was just a shower on the 12 June. On the 14 June to 16 June there was no respite from Sun’s heat.  

FINALLY RAINS.

On 15 June 2014 there was a heavy blowing gales rain that made even motorists to stop. It rained an hour from 2h30mPM from Zoo area up to Madhurwada in Visakhapatnam but as soon it stopped the Sun shown brighter and weather became sultry.

17 June till 3PM it was very hot though cloudy and for about an hour around 3 to 4 PM it rained heavily with thunder and lightning. It cooled the city in Maharanipeta area. Also on 18 June the morning is very cloudy. By afternoon it became very hot and on the 19 June the hot weather prevailed though the sky was relatively cloudy.

Rituals for Rain performed

        Simhachalam hills V.L.N. Swamy temple rituals were performed on Thursday 19 June to appease the rain Gods and indeed there was rain in the evening around 5h.30m PM for an hour with 0.5mm rain. The program of rituals would continue till 21 June. Dark clouds covered both Telangana and Andhra region on Thursday.  But, the major cities Vijayawada, Tirupati and Nellore continue to be under grip of heat wave with temperatures around 40⁰C. 20 and 21 June it was relatively hot.

           

            The weather in Visakhapatnam was a rainy day on June 22, 2014 with a slight rain in the morning from 3 AM to 4 AM but till 11 A M it was all cloudy and fine weather.

            The Tirupati devasthanam did three days puja for rain and of course, it rained on Thursday 26 June.

HEAT WAVE IN ANDHRA

                                                

Fig.3. Heat Wave in AP 12 June to 19 June 2014

Up to 5h30mPM on Monday 23 June the temperatures at Kakinada 41.2, Nellore 40, Vijayawada 40.3, Machilipatnam 41.3 and Ongole 40.5 were recorded.  Surprisingly four Rayalaseema districts including Kadapa, Ongole, Kurnool and Anantapur received from June 1 to 23 a rainfall of 55.3mm as against average of 45.8mm. Last week they recorded only 2.7mm instead of 18mm. June 15 to June 20 the district Srikakulam registered maximum temperature of 42⁰C. Rs 1L compensation paid for heat stroke deaths in Srikakulam.

For the last two weeks the heat wave conditions exist in AP. Schools closed on Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 also. Visakhapatnam became cool on Thursday 26 with cloudy weather but no rain. 18 deaths total due to heat in Visakhapatnam. Death toll in Srikakulam was 38. Vijayanagaram death toll is 127. EG district recorded 5 deaths.  Guntur no respite from heat wave and rain fall for June was 94%below normal. Death toll was 79. Prakasam district recorded 42 degrees temperature and in Chittoor and Nellore schools functioned normally since temperature were normal. 

26 June and 27 June happen to be sensational cool days with cloudy weather throughout the day in Visakhapatnam and people also enjoyed the beach shore. Upper air cyclonic trough in the North Bay of Bengal lowered temperatures and would continue next 24 hours on Thursday. In the night it rained in Visakhapatnam. But 27 June afternoon it became pretty hot though weather was cloudy till late night. Cold weather conditions and rain prevailed in the state on Friday and expected that from July 1, under the influence of Monsoon. Incessant rain havoc in Guwahati, Assam state, with 8 killed on Friday 27 June.  The 28 June in Visakhapatnam was very cloudy but no rain. In the evening it was a very pleasant weather. The 28 June in Visakhapatnam was very cloudy but no rain. In the evening it was a very pleasant weather.

29 June was partially cloudy weather with no rain. A powerful Earthquake struck oat far South Atlantic Ocean in the inhospitable South Sandwich Islands (SGSSI) which in turn is part of a British overseas territory. region around 0752GMT 5:52 a.m. local time. 30 June began with cold cloud covered sky in Visakhapatnam till late night. Weather is pleasant to freely move around in the city.

Department of Conservation staff on Raoul Island have escaped uninjured following a magnitude 7.2 earthquake off the coast of the island this morning. The earthquake was 5km deep and occurred around 7.20am, 73km southeast of Raoul Island, according to the US Geological Survey. Raoul Island is part of the Kermadec Island arc, which sits around 800-1000km off the coast of the North Island.

The National rainfall average was deficient by 42% in June in India according to Skymet, a private forecasting agency, making it 12^th instance in last 113 years.

El Nino’s Complex Link  

            How El Nino shapes up and it’s forecasting still remains a challenging problem. The interplay between Monsoon and El Nino not clearly understood. It is not as yet clear to-date what sort of El Nino would evolve whether Central or Eastern Pacific. Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) when positive affects the Eastern equatorial Indian Ocean off Sumatra in Indonesia becomes colder while western tropical part of Ocean near Africa coast becomes Warmer. A negative IOD reverses and hampers the monsoon. Forecasting monsoon without depending on predictability of El Nino is important. Some people in Andhra believe that till the Radha-Sapthami Day, 29 June 2014 the Monsoon would be lingering.

NASA’s Laser Beam Triumph Space Station to Earth using a new laser

 The OPALS transmitted a 37-second 175-megabit video with the message, of 3.5 second, to a ground station in California on June 5 from the NASA’s jet propulsion Lab in Pasadena, California.

Finding Gravitational Waves – a misnomer

            Harvard Group at BICEP2 telescope observed a twist in the polarization of ancient light according to David Spergel this twist is due to the dust present in the Milky-Way and outside it. This ultra-fine dust can absorb star light and re-emit it as “Infra-Red rays or as Radio-Waves” and due to their uneven shape could twist the light. The same effect of twisting the polarization of light can be produced due to when light curves around massive objects.

Colliding Plasma regions

            These may have same density, temperature and strengths of magnetic fields, but with different orientations, then symmetrical reconnection begins and the topology of magnetic field changes. These observations of the Sun seem to be new.

GEO-THERMAL HEAT

            This is the cause of Thwaites Glacier the rapidly changing outlet of Antarctic Ice Sheet, is being eroded by the Ocean, and now newly found from below by Geo-thermal heat.

Haruko Obokata

            She believes (June 3) that the breakthrough research of a new way of reversing the adult cells into pluripotent stem cells using slightly acidic conditions as a stressor. The STAP cells had the ability to form both embryonic and placental tissues. The authenticity of STAP cells was questioned. Also Japanese media opposed the observations. Plagiarism and duplication of images and inability of others to replicate the study findings became a big issue. The research work in two papers given to the Nature was withdrawn.

 ROMAN COINS FOUND KOTTAYAM

              The Roman Silver small-minted minted coins, each 3.7gms and about 2cm in diameter, identified as Denarius of Augustus, and other as of Denarius of Tiberius, more than 2000 years old recovered. And many precious artifacts as palm leaves of texts on Ayurveda, a few Chola coins, and more than 1200 Chinese coins dating from 1 to 15 century were recovered in Kerala. North Paravoor resident mining the Periyar river bed found a golden vase with a long neck weighing seven sovereigns but he took to a jeweler melted it and made a gold chain for his wife. Only UK British Museum that launched a Portable Antiquities Scheme in 1997 in Kerala and Tamil Nadu seem to be successful.

THREE ICE HALOS

On June 21st, Jun Lao of Mason, Ohio, saw three "ice halos,"  at once  they formed   when sunlight shown through ice crystals in high clouds around 4 P.M. EDT in the greater Cincinnati area. These multiple halos were caused by pyramidal ice crystals.

INDUS VALLEY CIVILIZATION

        The first urban civilization in the world that flourished, in the north-western part, in the vast plains of River Indus, and its tributaries thrived from 2600BC to 1900BC with a population of five million with well developed cities, sewage systems, metallurgy techniques, trade system, and many other mathematical and technical successes and a script that couldn’t be deciphered. Climate change as per researchers at BHU and Univ. of Cambridge revealed that series of droughts over 200 years, resulting in sudden disappearance of civilization in 1800BC to 1700BC.

MAY 2014 BAFFLING WEATHER

ABSTRACT

                Quake experienced at, Narasimha Ashram residence upstairs of the author, at 9h55m PM on Wednesday 21 May 2014, for nearly 12 seconds, measuring 5.8R scale, with possibly a P-wave of disturbance passed by. The downstairs residents have not felt the quake jolt. The epicenter was of 275km southeast of Paradip in Odisha, and tremors might have originated 40kms below seabed.May 27, 2014 the dissolution of depression in Bay of Bengal led to continuous rains in Srikakulum and Vijaya nagaram districts from Sunday (25^th) morning with highest rainfall in Kalingapatanam of 230mm till Monday morning. Parvatipuram in Vijayanagaram received 110mm rainfall. Miss Malawath Purna, 13 years tribal girl student of Class IX, in Thadwai APSWRS, from Nizamabad scaled Mount Everest on Sunday with Indian Flag pitched at 6.00AM.  On May 31, 2014 Northern and Eastern areas gales, thunderstorms, hailstorms killed as many as 47 people in New Delhi area. The UK Independent Party won British politics on Monday May 26, 2014 for the first in over 100 years, winning the 24 member of European Parliament seats. On Saturday 31 May 2014, the eruption of Sangeang Api in south of Indonesia produced large cloud of Ash cancelling flights from Australia and Southern Asia.

                

Key Words:   GRAVITY RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY, maritime silk-road, thermogalvanic effect batteries, Narasimha Ashram upstairs Quake for 12 seconds, idea of neutron coupling with gravity.

INTRODUCTION

SOLAR JET FUEL

        Synthesized “solar” jet fuel developed successfully with the entire production chain from renewable kerosene obtained directly from sunlight, water and C0₂ . A method claimed to produce any other fuel such as diesel, gasoline or pure hydrogen in a more sustainable way.  By means of a redox cycle with metals-oxide based materials at high temperatures and Syngas produced by using sunlight, with using carbon-monoxide and water, finally converted to kerosene by using the commercial Fischer-Tropsch technology.

NEWER SOLAR CELL

Northwestern University researchers developed the new solar cell that uses the “tin pervoskite” that achieved 15% more efficiency. Photovoltaic’s solar cells thus with tin pervoskite would reenergize the field.

INDUCTION STOVE

On top of Induction stove a vessel made up of Ferro-magnetic metal or steel when kept produces eddy electric current in the vessel. The resistivity of the vessel metal produces heat energy which heats up the food. The heat energy produced due to induction effect.  When a varying or alternate current is passed through the coil kept below the hot plate a magnetic field is produced around it. This field generates the eddy currents that when passes through the vessel, resistivity produces heat energy, which in turn heats up the food.

SOLAR POWER

BHELL sets up in YEMEN A PV-BASED POWER PLANT AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS IN THE Gulf country. Currently a 400-MW gas turbine-based power plant is being built in Yemen. Also SCHWING STETTER (SSI) India has set up a 100 KWP solar plant installed in Chennai. They expect to boost it up to 600 KWP.

German Success

            The German country on 11 May 2014, achieved renewable energy power by 20.5% of total electric consumption.

JACK FRUIT

Jack fruit could be a replacement for wheat, corn and other staple crops under threat of climate change.

EU ban on Alphonso mangoes and WTO

Banned include colocasia (taro, eddo) Momordica (bitter gourd), Solanum melongena (egg-plant) and Trichosanthes sp (snake gourd) along with Alphanso mangoes by the EU since 1 May. This was challenged at the WTO.

GRAVITY RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY

            Quintessence particles that explain the dark energy has been disapproved by an experiment by H. Abele, Austria in a paper given in April 2014, in Physical Review Letters. Low-energy table-top experimental technique to probe gravity, dark energy and dark matter conducted in France supports the idea of neutron coupling with gravity, and helps to probe, the Axion hypothetical particle of dark matter and, the Chameleon field the source of Dark Energy.

FOREIGN VISITORS

            Their visit to Araku Valley, Burraha caves, Dumbriguda and Chaparai waterfalls etc. enthralled the foreign visitors on Thursday 22 May 2014.

SILK ROAD PLAN

            China to invest billion-dollar fund for maritime silk-road said on Monday May 25, 2014. Project aims at building ports and infrastructure in important littoral countries in Southeast Asia and in Indian Ocean region including Bangla Desh and Sri Lanka.

TECH HELP

The thermogalvanic effect based new technology batteries developed at MIT and Stanford capture waste heat and convert it into electricity. (TOI, Dt.23 May 2014, India). The system can harness even differences in temperatures of the order 50⁰C.

TALAPATRA MEDICINAL VOLUME

            Found at Adhanki, in Prakasam Zillaha, a Palm leaves written Medicinal Volume, at Swarna Subba Rao residence, a priest (called Archaka) bilingual both in Tamil and Telugu languages. It describes the Ayurvedic Medicinal treatment of several diseases in about 390 leaves.

JAPANESE FIND

            A Japanese firm of Chemicals claims to have created a plastic that emits a blue light when it detects radiation.

MUONIC HYDROGEN AND PROTON RADIUS

             The Muons shot into hydrogen gas with 1% in 2S state and next a laser wavelength precisely to correspond to energy difference of 2S and 2P states, atom will jump up in energy then fall down to 1S state. An X-ray photon is released in the process. The energy difference between 2S and 2P states depends on Lamb shift, and this measurement helps detect the Proton Radius.

OBSERVATIONS

INDIAN ROLE – ELEMENT 117

             Phys. Rev. Letters confirmed on May 1^st, 2014 super-heavy element 117 existence. It emerged when Ca-48 ions at high energies impinged on a specially prepared target of berkelium-249 with 20 protons from Ca and 97 from Bk. The collaboration between SINP, India and GSI Helmholtz in Germany yielded the result. Dubna, in Russia experiments revealed four atoms of nuclei with 117 isotopes with mass number 294 earlier.

RAIN

On the 1 May 2014 also it rained but morning around 5AM. It was decorated with splash of lightning and thunders. There was on morning of Sunday 10 May 2014 rain shower at 2.26AM to 8AM with stray one or two thunders and lightning. The days from 1 May to late night 9 May the heat wave sustained at Visakhapatnam.

EARTHQUAKE UNUSUAL AT PARADIP

Quake experienced at, Narasimha Ashram residence upstairs of the author, at 9h55m PM on Wednesday 21 May 2014, for nearly 12 seconds, measuring 5.8R scale, with possibly a P-wave of disturbance passed by. The downstairs residents have not felt the quake jolt. The Earthquake that took place about 40Km down the Earth, in the sea in Paradip Odisha state.

The epicenter was of 275km southeast of Paradip in Odisha, and tremors might have originated 40kms below seabed. The Quake epicenter is baffling the experts since the origin in North Bay of Bengal is unusual. Nearly 6km of depth thick sediment deposits of river flows exists. What made the Earthquake tremors felt from Madras to Delhi?

On Thursday 22 the waves in the sea have become furious and the milky-white waves were a great attraction to the on lookers till late evening. In my opinion the Earthquake disturbances moved away from their origin sideways along the coast since the 6kms thick sediment prevented the upward thrust of the quake direct at 275kms southeast of Paradip in Odisha state. The quake effect was felt all along the East Coast up to Bhubhaneswar  and parts of Jharkhand.                                                                                                                                                        The quake resulted in upsurge of water in Visakhapatnam on Thursday till evening time. The waves appeared as milky-surf and extended in the beach coast an unusual sight for the beach visitors.

Quake revives fears of nuke plant safety in Kovvada of Ranasthalam in Srikakulam district. A lady spokeswoman ruled the entire Andhra Coastal region as unsafe for nuke plants. The nuclear power plant region experienced for 14 sec (the longest period) on Wednesday. A Professor at Centre for Studies on Bay of Bengal from AU asserts that north coastal region is relatively safe zone for the location of Nuclear Plant.

28 May 2014 Wednesday

A moderate intensity quake rocked the Indo-Myanmar border in Manipur early on Wednesday in which several states in the northeast region of India also felt the tremor. An earthquake of magnitude 4.6R and having its epicenter in Myanmar along the Indo-Myanmar border in Manipur rocked the area at around 8:49 am that the quake lasted for a few seconds. While the neighbouring states of Nagaland, Manipur and Tripura felt the mild jolt, there was no report of any casualty in any of these states. Manipur and all the seven northeastern states are categorized under Zone V in the country's seismological map and hence considered highly active.

UNUSUAL DAY TEMPERATURE

            It’s recorded on 22 May 2014, Thursday the day temperature as about 42.6⁰ C. Hot-winds have blown during the day. On the eve the weather had a phenomenal change. The hot-winds moved upward and when they cooled at these heights the gale winds and lightning rain resulted. By 6 O’clock the city covered with thick black clouds. The bizarre wind and gales brought down many electric pillars to the ground. Many trees have fallen on the electric wires. HB colony, MVP colony, Sagarnagar, Adibhatlanagar, Rushikonda, Endad, Padbhanabham, Bimilli, Anadapuram, Arilova, Visahalakshinagar, Hanumanthwalka and other places were affected and electric wires broken have fallen down along with electric poles.

Indonesia Volcano ash

            On Saturday 31 May 2014, the eruption of Sangeang Api in south of Indonesia produced large cloud of Ash cancelling flights from Australia and Southern Asia.

Thunderstorms of North East

May 31, 2014 Northern and Eastern areas gales, thunderstorms, hailstorms killed as many as 47 people in New Delhi area. Delhi itself recorded 14 deaths on Saturday 31^st.  A massive thunderstorm hit several states around Delhi on Friday evening and on Saturday morning. 6 people killed in Jaunpur district, five in Etah and three in Barabanki. Highest temperature recorded was 45.6⁰C.  In Jharkhand seven persons were killed in a storm on Saturday morning.   Morning at 4h30AM Saturday storm struck, trees were uprooted in Ranchi, Jamshedpur, Hazaribagh, Latehar and a few districts.  Five people died in Murshidabad, three were killed in Purulia and two in Burdwan. Western Bengal 12 died due to the rain thundershowers that struck in three districts.  29 people were injured. Odisha state in Ganjam Zillaha, Saturday night heavy rain collapsed mobile towers and in Banjar Ghar two electric poles collapsed. In Berhampur near Hiradhakandi-Kali temple area several electric wires were cut due to the fall of a tower.

CONCLUSION

            The month of May that exhibited several Gravity Waves resulted in the Earthquake on 21 May 2014 that struck at Odisha Coast but below 6 Km sand coverage. The site was a bit surprising since it was not a seismic prone area. This is an important and significant finding of the author that Gravity waves do precede the occurrence of Earth Tremors. Again his remarkable observation is that the Earth Quake was fully protected away by the 6 km sand cover near Odisha State and the spread out tremor splash extended from Madras State to Delhi area.
