When large volcanoes have gone off I remember sunsets in Mt. Shasta at my land during the 1980's were green and purple because of all the dust from Volcanoes worldwide. However, I have always wondered about the relationship between Earthquakes and the weather. In California where there are always little earthquakes and a few medium sized ones every year there is what we have called in the past earthquake weather. Though earthquakes can arrive at any time it always seemed like dry windy weather like during Santa Ana winds which are hot winds coming off the California deserts and out to sea. It also seemed like April or May was the best time for a large earthquake also. Usually big earthquakes like the Spring or Fall of the year in California but then it could just as easily be an old wives tale too.
No, I'm thinking if research has ever been done or actually how it could be done on how earthquakes and airborne weather like winds storms etc. all interact. I know it would be difficult to prove but as technology increases in sophistication it seems like there will eventually be even if there isn't technology yet a way to calibrate the effects of weather upon earthquakes and the effects of earthquakes upon weather. I think this sort of thing may help better predict earthquakes and even might better enable humans to predict weather. I believe they are connected at some level in a way scientists haven't yet been able to calibrate.
I think you have a excellent question. It should be researched more.
