The Canary Islands exhibit the strongest Congo Teleconnection, while Weaker yet Pronounced Teleconnections to other local Joule Spikes in the Cape Verde’s, West Sahara, and Mauitania are suspected to have links to Hurricane Formation.   Detailed Lightning observations may unravel this complex relationship.

West African Gravitational Teleconnections to the Congo are Strongest in the Canary Islands.  Inverse and in phase signals are noted at 2003-09, 2004-01, and between 2005-04 to 2005-07.  These Teleconnections are likely more than random events, but have not yet been correlated to other physical evidence.
