INTRODUCTION
Can anyone do something about the weather? Yes! Forewarned is forearmed. In this free report, southern New England weather is summarized for each of the 13 weeks of the entire season. The national highlights report focuses on the hurricane season which affects more than a third of the USA.
In one respect, we are fortunate to have excellent resources and fine meteorologists who work hard and are paid very well for their efforts. The computer models that are used to analyze and forecast weather give us a lot of information, yet their five day forecast usually falls apart after a few days because the weather systems continue to defy the computer analysis. The report you are about to experience is created from alternative methods which are lunar cycles and planetary positions, tools that were used hundreds of years ago. Forecasting weather 3 months, or 3 years into the future is doing something about the weather.
Forecasting weather is as old as the hills. No crystal ball is used to examine the natural cycles of the Moon and the planets, as seen on the NOAA and NASA websites. We understand that the Moon controls the tides and when it is full, the Moon has an effect on humans and animals. It is foolish to discount the relationship of the Moon to weather, yet scientists look to other methods that do not give the complete picture. Statistics will never describe the whole season.
Many hundreds of years ago, astrologers (who were also the first astronomers) would predict weather events that would occur during the coming season or beyond. Over the years, those who had a strong interest in the weather have followed the teachings and have left behind a legacy of information designed to assist the modern forecaster. Modern meteorologists insist that long range weather forecasts are not possible. This weather report continually proves that to be an incorrect statement. In addition, the Old Farmer’s Almanac claims to have the secrets to weather forecasting, yet they did not forecast one single hurricane for the 2004 season while my report was very accurate. In time, the astrometeorologist will be called upon to fill the gap in long range forecasting.
Doing something about the weather is possible if you know the forecast months or a year/s in advance. Many corporations pay dearly for the long range information that is available from the company started by Dr. Irving Krick. Check this website to read the book [ "STORM, Irving Krick vs. the U.S. Weather Bureaucracy", by: Victor Boesen ] and this website to see where his company has gravitated. http://www.planalytics.com/app/corp/start.jsp

NATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS - WEATHER ACROSS THE NATION
The Summer Outlook For USA 2005
In the northwest, moisture will be the dominant form of weather over the season. From fog to flooding, the systems will come in with normal temperatures for this region, if not a bit cooler than average. Along the Rocky Mountains down through southern California, a large land mass, the indications are for severe weather with lightning strikes and much damage to the environment. The western central states including the southwest states should have typical summer hot and dry conditions. Over the midsection of the USA there will be hot temperatures and humidity south, less in the north. The east and southeast outlook is combined with the extensive hurricane report.
NEW ENGLAND AND THE NORTHEAST USA
Drought will not be a word used to describe the early summer season. The grass will be very green and so will the mold between your toes! Over the course of summer, there will be heat spikes to avoid a completely washed out season, but on more pleasantly warm days, the clouds will begin to move in resulting in chilly air with excessive humidity or dampness. Whether it will be hot and excessively humid or cold and clammy, the summer outlook in New England is uncomfortable overall. The levels of rainfall will be higher early in the season, and then it will begin to dry out as summer progresses.
If you think back to the fall of 2004, we have been continually bombarded with weather consisting of cold, windy, aggressive fronts arriving every few days, leaving fair and calm days in between. The television meteorologists have been unable to forecast the weather until it is upon us. I’ve watched the 10 to 15 day forecasts simply change every day. That won’t be the case in this report; once written and posted, it is unchanging and has more reliably described the weather. With the variety of weather systems coming to New England, I must add that the changing weather scene was difficult to analyze and may not be as accurate as the spring 2005 report.
After a stormy start to summertime, the bad news is that sunny, cloudless days at the beach will be at a minimum, plus at times you may need a jacket. NOTE: the local waters will be dangerous and misadventures will make headlines.
Enjoy the better weeks outlined below.

Southern New England and the Northeast
WEEKLY SUMMARIES for New England and the Northeast
The following forecasts contain weekly summaries describing the dominant weather for each 7-8 day lunar period. Not all weather events are described. Daily forecasts are available - see below.Wednesday June 22-27, 2005 Perigee June 22
It will be warm and dry until showers move in on the 23rd and again around the 26-27th.
These showers will be aggressive and damaging due to high wind
velocity. The heat could be record setting this week as high
pressure is in control, plus at times it will be HHH, hot, humid,
and hazy. It is a busy week of weather changes!
Tuesday, June 28-July 5, 2005 July 4th Holiday
HHH conditions continue through July
1st when windy turbulence catches up and brings relief and cooler
temps. The clouds are hanging around however, and moisture is
picking its spots to drop heavy showers for the next few days.
Partial clearing, but probably cooler than vacationers would prefer
at the beaches.
Wednesday, July 6-13, 2005
After a brief period of precipitation it will be very pleasant and warm weather with a touch of humidity to begin this period. Later, the weather is mixed with both light precipitation and sunshine. More moist tropical air will reach us later in the week driving up the temperature to feel uncomfortable.
Thursday, July 14-20, 2005 Coming up!
**Supermoon Perigee July 21
Cloudy and the air is a bit cooler for openers.
Showers near the 15th then good summer days with a heat
spike for a day or so near the 20th.
Wednesday, July 21-27, 2005 **Supermoon Perigee
July 21
This will be an uncomfortable week starting with hot and humid, overcast conditions. Turbulence, showers and Tstorms for most of this unsettled and stormy week.
Wednesday, July 27-Aug 3, 2005 An unstable atmosphere brings strong T-storms and wet weather most of the week. The strongest and most severe weather producing squalls on the 29- 31st trying to alleviate the high temps. Relief at the end of the period.
Thursday, August 4-11, 2005 Cooler temps for a few days when the heat comes back bringing the usual results of the hot and cold together - violent thunderstorms erupt from about the 11th -12th and continue into the next period.
Friday,
August 12-18, 2005 Be alert! **SuperMoon Perigee August 19th
High pressure will feed in for what looks like
glorious days of fair weather several days during the period; strong
winds could rake the region. The Bermuda high will more than likely
produce humidity as well. Catch the good days when you can. In
addition, the wind is wild later this week – see the hurricane
report for more details of where the storms are located.
Hurricane Report
We will get our share of strong winds along with T-storms as well.
Friday, August 19-25, 2005 **SuperMoon Perigee August 19th The most extreme tides are found during a supermoon period. Beware of running aground if you are boating. Humidity continues early but changes to more dry condition with fair days ahead. Lots of temperature influences this week vying for dominance and ending with a windy rainstorm with tropical attributes that carries over to August 26th.
Friday, August 26-Sept. 2, 2005 Much the same as last week but stronger tropical weather approaches during the peak of hurricane season. Moist, cooler and humid early in the period with strong windy conditions twice during the period. A tropical system with tempestuous and damaging winds will surely pass by our coast near the 28th.
Saturday, September 3-10, 2005 Labor Day (5th) Weekend Uncomfortable humidity returns along with higher temps early in the week. There is a threat of intense weather, either actual or political, in Southern New England early in this period causing damage to our environment. A hurricane watch is posted. Later, various fronts vie for temperature control and bring seasonal spotty thunderstorms in a mostly otherwise warm and dry week.
Sunday, September 11-17, 2005 *Perigee September 16 Seasonal temperatures, perhaps a bit cooler. Clouds and humidity mid week bringing uncomfortable conditions from tropical air headed north.
Saturday, September 18-24, 2005 *Perigee September 16 Tropical activity will bring in humid conditions as a named storm cruises by a little too closely. The unstable atmosphere pushes off to the Atlantic after strong thunderstorms affect sharp plunges of temperatures. Seasonable weather for the rest of the period.
*Perigee periods, as noted, occur when the Moon in its monthly cycle is closest to Earth. The weather trend leans toward intensification with stronger gravitational pull, with higher and lower tides plus an increase in wind activity. When the Moon is perigee and the Moon is new or full, plus the Moon is in high declination degrees, all at the same time, it is labeled a **Super Moon. Intense weather and seismic events are found around the globe during this period.
**Two SuperMoons for the summer season, July 21, and August 19th.

CREATING THE LONG RANGE FORECAST
The long range forecast is created from many old techniques that were used by the ancients. They were able to forecast weather from the 1500's where we have documentation. We forecast weather using the Moon's position including the distance from earth, planetary configurations and natural cycles. The models used by the ancients are recreated and improved upon each year, producing a weather report unlike any other. In addition, a weather website and a weather list are available to everyone. The many features on the website may interest those who are weather aficionados. Look for free on-line books, and resources.Daily Forecasts

Meteorology even with the aid of weather satellites, computers and modern high-speed communication facilities, never will succeed in dealing intelligently with anomalies of weather beyond the actual time and progress of the phenomena.
