General --October is the middle month of meteorological autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. --The major islands and land areas of tropical Southeast Asia have daily thunderstorms in sea breezes and along mountain slopes; they tend to move slowly from east to west. --Most thunderstorms at higher latitudes move from west to east. --Over the Indian subcontinent, lightning is more frequent to the south than elsewhere. --The equatorial trough, the Intertropical Convergence Zone, is not usually identifiable over the Indian and Western Pacific Oceans. --Over Australia, most lightning is in large organized systems moving from west to east. ~Ron Holle
