Mercury and Venus activate Uranus and Pluto now by square and semi-square. Abruptly falling temperatures with northwest wind push down over the Great Lakes into eastern U.S. and bring the potential for wintry precipitation. Other key charts indicate that wintry weather will be felt over Nevada, Oklahoma, and Iowa.

This should be an active weather period for Europe. Blustery northwest wind should push eastward over Ireland through the UK, Portugal, and Spain towards Germany. Similarly, Uranus-Pluto over China indicates sudden temperatures drops and northwest winds pushing into the country's center.
