The last (three year graph) is of a scale I think that be used to understand the processes (that border on EU ideas) that I have come to realize, drive the severe weather outbreaks.

When the Center of mass of the Earth, is forced above or below the ecliptic plane, inductive forces place a differential static or ionic charge from one pole to the other, (normally maintained by Homo polar generator effects) shifting the normal positive band of charge at the ITCZ back toward the ecliptic plane intersection. When the COM of the Earth, is Maximum South, the counter balancing Moon is at Maximum North declination, for that 27.32 day long cycle.

The inductive charge gradient appears at the same time as the declinational angle culminates, and due to the pendulum movement effects, hangs at about the same angle for almost three days, before the two bodies sweep through the rapid movement phase, of close to 7 to 10 degrees per day across the equator (for the Moon), the ecliptic plane (for both).

There by producing surges in the meridial flow, via declinational tidal bulges in the atmosphere, in phase with the Lunar movement, and the creation and maintenance of a ionic charge gradient across the frontal boundary in addition to the thermal contrast, as well as the moisture content (dew point), for the three days at maximum declinational culmination. Enhancing the precipitation rates, maximizing and sustaining the ionic charge gradient.

Negative charges are free to travel as liberated electrons, that fan out ahead of the moving cold front, as the normal production of Sirius clouds.

Positive ionic charges on the other hand, have to move whole molecules, to travel, so are trapped mostly in the surface layers with high moisture content, that form the updrafts into the lightning producing clouds. As the ions from both sources rush toward each other, (typical convergence speeds in a thunderstorm are in excess of 50 to 70 MPH) all moisture with ionic charges on it combine to form neutral precipitation, all condensation nuclei, become trapped in the droplets, the moisture attracted to each other falls when massive, and the dust free cold air exits the clouds as down bursts, invisible outflows.

The visible clouds them selves, are constantly being reinforced with fresh ionized air mass, so the charge process due to non visible turnover, is many times the volume it appears to be as seen from the ground. Powering the rapid condensation, and the left over ionic charges are discharged as lightning. (Grapnel processes still apply to intra cloud transfer of charges) Most of the power is in the invisible incoming air flow, and the large volume of processed deionized air is also not visible as it exits the thunder cloud, which is what makes it dangerous for aircraft.

The tidal bulge dynamics can be used to judge the inertia of the frontal system to plot it's movement. And the inertia of the center of the air mass is a better indicator of the potential movement of a storm than the resultant frontal boundary or the low pressure generated along it. Once the tidal component is calculated into the tracking of tropical storms, and hurricanes, they take predictable paths, make turns as the Moon crosses the equator, and shift off to the north East, as the lunar declination goes toward Maximum.
