Texas Rain Results

Important Update- Sept 30, 2012:
An interesting comment was made by Accuweather today regarding the recent rain in Texas. They stated, "Even ignoring the recent heavy rain, conditions have been improving as much of Texas is averaging near to above normal in rainfall since late spring." This comment confirms the forecast posted back in November 2011 entitled Texas Summer 2012 (see the link in the next paragraph) in which I mentioned that the Jupiter-Neptune influence would bring above average rainfall.

The August 10, 2012 post entitled More on Texas Rain 2012 gave some dates to look out for regarding rain in Texas. Other posts on the subject are Texas Summer 2012 and Texas Drought Update. These posts explain the role that the Jupiter-Neptune square has in increasing rainfall. The map below shows the position of Neptune and Jupiter through Texas, the Plains, and the Mississippi Valley.



The first date was August 21-25. The map below shows the storms that developed over the Texas area on the 21st.

The National Weather Service explained that an upper level disturbance combined with a warm front and moist air to bring widespread thunderstorms to the Southern Plains. These storms move very slowly and produced heavy rain.

The next forecast was for the period of Sept 1-3. Although no rain developed over Texas, the remnants of Hurricane Isaac hit Arkansas, Missouri, and southern Illinois. When comparing the map below for Sept. 1st and the astro-locality map above, we can see the remnants of Isaac were over the Jupiter line at this time when it was being activated.




Sept 6-8 was forecast to be a period of sultry weather due to increasing temperatures and humidity. On the 5th, the Weather Channel reported severe storms from the Texas Panhandle into Kansas. On the 7th, storms were spreading east in the Appalachians and south into Texas. Hot temperatures were still holding on in South Texas on the 8th. The last forecast period was Sept 16-18. In the map below for Sept 16, we see rain over Texas. Actually, the 16th was the last day of a few days of flooding rain that hit Texas starting late on the 13th. Meanwhile further east, heavy rain was falling from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes. In a 24-hour period, 2 to 4 inches of rain fell over Tennessee, Kentucky, and the Appalachians. This is pretty close to the Jupiter line in the astro-locality map. Below is the Accuweather map for Sept 16.

Mars Conjunct Saturn Aug 15, 2012 Results

Here are the results of the forecasts for the Mars-Saturn conjunction of August 15, 2012. The forecast was posted on July 15, 2012. It was mentioned how windy, destructive storms and energetic storm systems form at the times of these conjunctions. The first two areas pinpointed were the Plains especially over Texas and Oklahoma as well as of the southern coast of Mexico where tropical storm formation was a possibility.

Forecast
 So around the 15th of August we should see a severe weather pattern develop over the Plains with particular emphasis over the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles where destructive storms, perhaps generating hail, gusty winds, and tornadoes is possible. The crossing off the southern coast of Mexico should be watched around the 15th for the formation of tropical system.

Results
Aug 15
The Weather Channel headline read "Potent Front Slices Eastward Next Few Days"

- Some of these storms will be associated with a strong, southward-moving cold front and could bring the threat for severe weather to portions of Oklahoma and Arkansas.

Aug 16
Severe thunderstorms producing damaging wind gusts and hail are possible from western Tennessee to central Oklahoma through this evening.

The Mars-Saturn line also extended northward into the High Plains. Accuweather reported the following:

The northern Plains will be a battleground between two well defined air masses. The cool shot of air in the wake of the cold front will be driving through warm, moist air moving north across the central Plains. The collision may turn violent for some. Strong storms will rumble across area cities, including Minneapolis, Minn., Sioux Falls, S.D., Madison, Wis., Rapid City, Iowa and Omaha, Neb., among others.

Mexico

The remains of Tropical Depression 7 hit Mexico very near the area mentioned in the long-range forecast but a bit further north. Here's what an internet news reported shared.

Aug 17 NOLA web site
The National Hurricane Center has issued a special tropical weather outlook to discuss the remnants of Tropical Depression 7, which are located over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico...Locally heavy rains and gusty winds will continue over the area during the next day or two, as the system moves northwestward at about 10 mph.

Forecast
The next portion of the forecast talked about an area of Europe over the North Sea between England and Denmark where a vigorous low pressure system or strong front should develop. The map below shows a strong cold front in between England and Denmark.

Results
Aug 15 - Heavy rain and gales will affect Britain today. Strong gales as well in the Bay of Biscay. Heavy showers are forecast for western and northern parts of France...
Aug 16- Heavy showers are forecast for Denmark with rain across Germany.

Forecast
The third map part of the forecast highlighted the area around 175 east longitude and 27 south latitude or about 725 miles north of New Zealand. This area was to be watched for the formation or passage of a tropical cyclone around the 15th of August.

Results
No tropical cyclones reported.

Fall Weather 2012: Eastern U.S.

During the fall season of 2012, Venus will occupy the 84th degree of west longitude. This runs through the states of Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida. Of course, the influence of this planetary line will extend further east and west of this line of longitude.

 

Venus will occupy the sign Leo. This position is said to signify frequent rainfall and thunderstorms. Venus is in a very close square aspect to Mars, which also relates to storminess. Let's look at a few dates when this position will be activated. Of course, other planetary influences will be at work throughout the fall, but these dates and times only pertain to the aforementioned position of Venus.

Forecasts
Sept 25-27
 Venus' square to Mars at this time will increase temperatures and bring a front or storm system to the Mid-Atlantic area.

Oct 17-19
Mercury will now activate the position of Venus and most likely bring a front or low pressure system that affects 84 west longitude from Michigan down through Florida.

Nov 9-11
The transit Sun triggers Venus and Mars which is known to increase temperatures but also carries the potential for storminess throughout the eastern section of the U.S.

Dec 6-7
The last trigger to Venus occurs now and will bring more showers throughout the eastern U.S.

Fall Weather 2012: New England

Autumn begins on September 22nd this year and ends on December 21st. The astro-localtiy map below shows two planetary influences that will affect the New England area during the season. The line running from north to south represents the planet Neptune, and the diagonal line that crosses it represents the planet Mars. An observer stationed at the point where both the lines cross would observe Mars to be rising at the moment the fall season starts and would would "see" Neptune directly beneath his or her feet.




These planets will affect weather patterns over New England at times during the fall season. I've compiled some dates when both these planets will be activated at the same time. The resulting weather patterns will likely be storm systems known as low pressure areas. Since we are in hurricane season, there is the potential that these low pressure areas or storm centers may be tropical in nature.

Forecasts

September 26-27
The Mars-Neptune crossing off the New England coast is triggered now as well as another one further south off the North Carolina coast. This might be an indication of the path of a tropical system that is drawn northward passed the Carolinas toward New England in and around these dates.

November 10-14
A similar set up forms now as the Mars-Neptune crossing is activated. Neptune also turns stationary on the 11th and then receives a square from Mercury on the 13th. Another crossing develops further to the south off the North Carolina coast at the time of the New Moon. Once again, this could suggest a tropical system that heads northward toward the New England area.

November 21-23
Mercury and the Sun activate the Mars-Neptune crossing. When Mercury and Mars are in aspect, wind is usually a salient feature. Check for a windy front or low pressure system, possibly tropical in nature, over the New England area now.

November 25-27
The weather pattern indicated at this time may be related to the previous one. Mercury will begin its stationary movement now, which is usually a sign of increased wind velocities. Venus will parallel Neptune, which can charge the atmosphere with maximum humidity and bring heavy downpours. All of this is indicated over the New England area now.

December 7-11
Another storm system affects the New England area between these dates.

Introduction to the Weather Alternative

One day the zoo-keeper noticed that the orang-utan was reading two books - the Bible and Darwin's The Origin of Species. In surprise he asked the ape, "Why are you reading both those books"?
"Well," said the orang-utang, "I just wanted to know if I was my brother's keeper or my keeper's brother."
