Weathersage: Spring 2008 Weather Forecast

Watch for the launching of the New CD Version of The Long Range Weather Forecasting Course.

This major course for the 21st century is a two part multi-media CD designed to individually accommodate the novice and advanced astrologer

The contents will be discussed by Carolyn in two lectures at the UAC conference in Denver, Colorado in May, 2008.

Many meteorologists try to forecast weather beyond a few days; few succeed. The success of astrometeorology cannot be denied when a weather forecast is prepared by an astrometeorologist living in New England who can prepare an accurate single day forecast for anywhere in the USA or in other locations - Australia, Peru, or Hawaii for a date in the future - a month, a year, two years or more.

According to Webster's Dictionary, Astrometeorology is defined as the investigation of the relation between the sun, moon, and stars, and the weather. An Astrometeorologist is one who studies and forecasts the weather.

Many have an interest in weather, from the farmer's lore, to the observation of the color of caterpillar's fur and the thickness of a squirrel's tail. Any study of weather performed over many years will produce valid and accurate observations, but astrometeorology, which has been in use for hundreds of years, has benefited many who want to know what the weather will be next month or next year. This report describes weather for a complete season with a goodly percentage of accuracy for what is written. Daily weather is available for purchase; details can be found at the end of this report.

The 'tools of the trade' for the weather report information include the images that are produced as a resource. Take a moment to look at the information and the easy to follow commentary.

Sun and clouds for the west coast and typical cloudy and rainy conditions and somewhat cooler than normal temps for the northwest. The winds take center stage this week across the nation. Storms rage through middle America. Tornados rampage and destroy. Chilly through the southeast with mixed weather days throughout the week. Spring rains along the east coast. The winds will be strong here as well. Clouds and chilly days in Florida.

In the northwest, more turbulent spring thunderstorms ahead. The rest of the west coast should be fairly good weather with plenty of sunshine in southern California. Middle USA will experience sunny and mild days along with Sun and clouds mixed into the week. Warmer days with some humidity in the Great Lakes tier of states. The east coast is faced with very strong winds. More Sun than rain in the southeast states.

Great weather in so. California. Sun and clouds in the northwest along with a few spring showers. Breezy, cold and rain/snow northern Rockies. Middle America will have a variety of weather conditions, dry, sunny, windy, rainy, tornado warnings. Warmer in the northern tier of states around the great lakes with active thunderstorms during the week. Florida takes on aggressive thunderstorms and systems cross over to the east coast where the temperature rises as well as becoming windy and turbulent.

Drying out in the northwest with breezy and sunny days. Strong indications of showers in southern California, but mostly sunny and breezy. Seasonal weather across the intermountain west. Middle USA is dealing with the fronts that create destructive tornados. Florida will be chilly and rainy. Showers and cooler temps for the northeast.

Many models point to the SuperMoon stormy scenario for much of the nation and in full force for the east coast. New England may not be the hardest hit but should prepare for strong winds and precipitation. Middle America may start the period with dry and sunny conditions but will switch over to more wet and stormy conditions. The wind will be whipping across the heartland.

This is a week with much rain creating flooding conditions. For the northwest states, mostly a moist, misty, foggy condition; mostly dry in the south west but watch for isolated windy thunderstorms in the desert. Central USA has rising temperatures and a near quiet weather week. Plenty of rain and moderate temperatures in Florida. Rain on the east coast and windy Tstorms followed by clearing and fine weather.

Flooding is possible from the stormy conditions coming into the northwest. The California coast and the southwest has more tropical rain to deal with. Northern plains will have showers and fluctuating temperatures but middle USA may be under the high pressure bringing warmer temperatures. Warm and dry in the southeast with breezy conditions.

In the northwest, after early showers, the week ahead may be one of the better weeks of spring where sunshine is plentiful and outweighs the chances of precipitation days. Mid to southern west coast is showery mixed with good weather days as well A stretch of hot weather for central USA. Warm and dry in the southeast.

The nasty super moon weather is not on the east coast this month - it is a storm coming into the northwest. It will be violent and destructive. Southern California also catches a piece of this weather activity. The storms will travel, affecting the Rockies and the desert southwest. Once on the plains, tornado activity will be severe. The weather this week will make many headlines in the news. There is a chance of rain in the southeast, otherwise Sun and clouds.

Rain coming to the northwest; more seasonal over all. Southern California should be mostly dry, sunny and breezy. Mid-westerners and to the southeast - you can take a breath! A good week of sunny and pleasant weather - from warm to hot temperatures. The northeast will experience showers to begin the period, and lingering fronts may produce cloudy and showery weather for several days with spots of clearing scattered through the period.

From spring into summertime. In the northwest expect hot and humid weather after cloudy and showery conditions pass. In the southwest coast, a moist, perhaps wet and warm tropical influence. Dismal weather for the desert southwest. Does the tornado season end with spring? One would hope so as these last few days bring yet another windy storm in middle America. In the southeast, an extreme downfall in the midst of a mostly dry season. Florida and the surrounding region may find an early season tropical storm warning.

Accurate winter weather: Indications for a cold and blustery start to winter lasting through January. March brings the winter wrap up with one storm for St. Patrick's Day. With a mixed temperature season, in the end, it should be close to average overall.

SPRING - April brings plenty of precipitation and windy weather events. Because of the more intense tornado season, the winds and turbulent fronts will head east. A major storm in May during the SuperMoon period. June will be moisture laden as well, giving springtime more wet weather than average and average to just below normal temperatures.

Mar 14 - Apr 9 - Very windy conditions good for flying kites!
Apr 2 - Apr 16 - Fluctuating winds. Mostly very breezy. Windier Apr 3,9.
Apr 17 - May 1 - Intense winds early in period. Breezy/fluctuating.
May 2 - May 25 - Intense winds (may be offshore) to start. Breezy/fluctuating.
May 26 - Jun 19 - Mild winds changing to more blustery - see weekly details.

Windy thunderstorms dominate this springtime week. Howling winds around the 10th will make this a strong Moon perigee turbulent event. Temperatures fluctuate.

More of the same turbulent spring thunderstorms ahead. Mixed fronts with warm moist air mixing with cold. Watch for funnel clouds and heavy rain, possible flooding.

The temperature rises and the disturbed atmosphere will produce more thunderstorms and active squalls. Strong winds, choppy waters and flaring tempers wishing for more calm weather!

Another squall then the showers taper off. Sun/clouds and warmer as we enter the month of May.

Many models point to the SuperMoon stormy forecast in full force on the east coast. New England will get a share of the storm; prepare for strong winds and precipitation. Better springtime weather later in the week.

Gentle farmer's rain early and at mid period. Good weather on the remaining days, and hoping that the rain doesn't linger.

Warm and dry to begin the week. Rain, cooler midperiod. Northern New England should have intense winds. Sun and clouds to finish up the period and a chance of, yes, another shower.

After early showers, the week ahead may be one of the better weeks of spring where sunshine is plentiful and outweighs the chances of precipitation days. Seasonal temperatures are welcome.

The nasty supermoon weather is not on the east coast this month. Breezy and more seasonable temperatures for early June. Chance of showers from unsettled atmosphere near the 7-8th. Heavier showers south of New England. A week of Sun and clouds.

Showers to begin the period, and lingering fronts may produce cloudy and showery weather for several days with spots of clearing scattered through the period. Heavy precipitation end of this period to start of the next.

Heavy rains may start this period. The last week of spring will bring on the warmer, more humid condition plus a bonus of fair weather.

In Southern New England, strong indications for hot weather are evident. There is an intensity to the heat and moisture combination which could be rather uncomfortable. Thunderstorms will break the heat early on. The season will present us with the variety of weather scenarios we've come to expect here in New England. This year, during August and early September, the hurricane alerts and weather conditions may come closer to our shores than we would like, but more work must be done in this area. The 2008 Hurricane Report will provide a detailed forecast.

TERMINOLOGY

*Perigee periods, as noted in the forecasts, occur when the Moon is closest to Earth every month. The trend for weather is toward intensification with the stronger gravitational pull of the Moon on Earth at this time. The tides will be higher and lower than normal near the exact date, plus there will be an increase in the wind activity. When the Moon is at perigee and at the same time it is also a new or full Moon, it is called a 'SuperMoon'.

A syzygy is a situation where three celestial bodies are positioned along a straight line. The term is also applied to each instance of New Moon or Full Moon when Sun and Moon are in conjunction or opposition, even though they are not precisely on one line with the Earth.

**SuperMoon is a term coined by Richard Nolle, Astrologer. He defines the SuperMoon as a perigee-syzygy; namely a new or full moon which occurs at or near (within 90% of) perigee. Check his website for the complete list of SuperMoon dates..

The long range weather forecast is created using many old techniques. The ancients were able to forecast weather dating back to texts from the 1500s. Today, Astrometeorologists forecast weather using the Moon's position in relation to the distance from earth, planetary configurations and natural lunar cycles. The models used by the ancients are recreated and improved upon each year, producing weather reports 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 enjoy weather information. Look for the free on-line books, and other resources.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
Can anyone do something about the weather? Yes! Forewarned is forearmed. In this free report, weather is summarized for each of the 13 weeks of the entire season. The national highlights report scans the potential weather systems that will affect the season and the local New England report has more detail.

We can give credit to meteorologists and the U.S. Weather Service for their fine work with statistics and current weather reports; however, they continue to be weak in the area of long range forecasting and hurricane movement as witnessed during that season.

The report you are reading has been created from methods that were used hundreds of years ago, tools that include the natural cycles of the Moon, Sun and planetary positions. Forecasting weather 3 months, or 3 years into the future is doing something about the weather.

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.
