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.

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.
