Across the USA - Long Range National Forecast

Regional Summaries based on New Moon charts.

Northern
New England

         
Early spring
brings in the snow, possibly in record-setting amounts only to thaw and create
flooding miseries that the 'mud' season can bring up north in New England. Mid
April - mid May will see more precipitation, a sunny period then a cold spell.
Mid-May eases out of the cold spell only to be into windy conditions with
occasional downpours. Typical spring weather but with more oomph to it this
year.

Ohio
Valley

        
Showers and
downpours could lead to flooding during the March 17th New Moon period.
Mid-April to Mid-May will feature thunderstorms with great intensity and
wonderful weather to enhance idyllic spring awareness. Mid-May through summer
brings a problem with the winds. It is also a time for drying out and the heat
to start building.

Southeast.

      
Early spring is
delightful. Mid April to mid-May allows normal conditions with thunderstorms
alternating with hot and dry periods. Mid-May to summer finds the humidity
beginning to build but there will be a cold wind that brings a few destructive
storms.

Florida

       
Chilly to cold
days early in the season and excessive moisture. Mid April to mid-May should be
a wonderful time for tourists to visit. Native will enjoy the pleasant and
sometimes windy month. Mid-May to summer will find the Floridians donning
sweaters as the chilly breezy may bring goosebumps.

The
Upper Plains, the Dakotas, Minnesota, & Wisconsin

        
The area will
begin with snow and other forms of precipitation-some freezing rain long with
exhilarating gusts of wind. Genuinely lovely days are promised in this period
also J Mid-April brings in the windy days with quite a punch! Prettier days to
prevail with an early heat plume; a little early summer humidity.

      
Mid-May to summer
will ease you out of a cloudy cool place into a heat spike that could set a
record. The nodes and Uranus are angular for this area. Expect the unexpected
for the normal season!

Mid
Plains States, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri

       
Fair, windy and at
times rainy for the March 17th New Moon. Mid-April to mid-May brings in the
anxiety of fierce tornado activity. Be concerned and listen to all warnings.
Mid-May to summer brings more unusual wind activity that will happen during the
night. Following your local forecasters is a must during this period.

Texas

       
The wind planet,
Mercury is placed in an ominous position for the New Moon chart in Dallas TX.
This whole area should be on the alert for a very aggressive wind from March
17th to mid-April. A repeat of intense and threatening winds continues for the
April to May period with many close calls. Mid-May through summer brings in the
traditional hot weather for Texas. It's another season of record breakers. Just
how hot can it get in Texas!

The
Rockies

        
Seasonal winds and
normal spring downpours and generally fair through mid-April. Through mid-May,
there is damp weather, melting snow in extreme, tending to flood. Mid-May
through summer brings the ending to the waterworks and slides into an early
summertime heat to dry things out.

Arizona
and New Mexico

        
Similar weather
conditions as the Rockies with less extreme weather and a lower percentage of
precipitation.

Southern
California

       
Mid-March shows a
chilly and windy scenario. Mid-April will have unusual and unexpected weather
events that could be difficult and destructive. Merging fronts bring in thunderstorms
and lightning strikes. Tremors may be more of a problem. Mid-May to the summer
season indicates a Saturn on the 1st angle, which tends to restrict life in
general in the area. If not a coastal storm, then a restructuring of some kind
is indicated.

Oregon,
Washington and Idaho

        
Season indications
with tendency to be brisk and breezy. Fair weather patterns to mid-April when
thunderstorm activity and fluctuations in temperatures from quite warm to cold
then warm through Mid-May. Finishing up through to summer indicates the melting
snow process brings difficulty to the area because of the additional
precipitation that could linger for weeks.

SolarMap
of the USA Aries Ingress

      
Explore the view
of the spring planet placements in another perspective - on the map of the USA.
Each line represents a planet on an angle of the ingress chart and, in turn, a
weather indication for the area it flows through. Notice the Saturn, Venus
lines on the descendant or 7th angle/house cusp through New England. This
indicates a cold and wet beginning to spring in the northeast. Uranus on the
4th angle/house cusp shocks the same area with the unstable weather patterns
and reversals of weather events. Moving west you will see the Neptune 4th house
line in the area of western Pennsylvania down through the Carolinas. Neptune is
a good indicator for flooding if found in hard aspect to other planets. It is
just that. The last of the Saturn and Neptune squares happens this spring and
flooding along this Neptune line is highly probable. The Ohio Valley is most
suspect for overflowing.

      
The Jupiter
descendant line through the western states helps to bring in more fair weather
and strong northerly flows of wind into the areas. Sun and Mercury on the 7th cusps
through the west coast and rockies suggest warmth and wind activity.

Winds

       
Very windy in
early April through the 17th. A more aggressive wind until May 8th. Difficult
winds continue to May 23rd. The end of May has a short quiet time from the wind
but there could be some erratic pockets of fierce wind. As spring ends, the
winds die down until summertime begins.

Spring
in Rhode Island, Connecticut and Southern Massachusetts

        
The season, March
through June 2001, has temps that will swing from abnormally cold to extremely
hot for short periods of time. In-between these abnormal periods, the weather
will be moist, mild and typical of spring. This is a virtual roller coaster of
weather activity, complete with summerlike T-storms and lightning, for the
entire eastern half of the USA. Flash flooding more for the east coast and a
major flooding in the eastern half of the USA will be a concern and an over
abundance of steady rains could damage early plantings in the east.

Weekly Summaries, Rhode Island and the Northeast

Wednesday,
March 24, 2001, First Quarter moon

        
Spring rains are
featured this week. A windy thunderstorm near 27th. Clearing around the 28th to
more pleasant springlike weather. Because we enter a two-week period where the
warming Sun and beneficial Jupiter can bring pleasant, balmy days, we could
override some of the nasty weather. An interesting weather day on the 31st
could find a spike in the temp. Happy times. A rush of Spring Fever!

Technical:Gemini on 4th, Moon. Pisces on 1st, Mercury, Sun, Jupiter, Saturn
late in house.

Wednesday,
March 31, 2001, Full Moon - Easter Sunday April 4^th

       
Indications are
very strong for a heavy rain leading to spectacular flooding in the northeast
especially because of the saturated ground from last week's rain. There is an
equally strong potential for bright

       Sun and rising temperatures
during breaks in the rain with the Jupiter/Sun aspect on the weekend. Cloudy
skies do threaten all week. One year ago, a similar combination of planets
brought drenching rain for several days in early June. The storm covered the
eastern 1/3rd of the nation.

Technical: Capricorn on 4th, Neptune. Libra 1st, Moon conjunct. #3 Sat/Nep
square.

Thursday,
April 8, 2001, Last Quarter moon

       
Clouds may linger
and we will see some wind and chill. Moisture events range from fog to a rise
in humidity. More pleasant weather may arrive by the weekend; mostly fair to
the 14th.

Technical: Pisces on 4th, Mercury. Sagittarius on 1st, Pluto.

Thursday,
April 15, 2001, New Moon

        
Mixed conditions
for this week. Dry, sunny and warm temps dominate the early part of this week.
Classic hot and cold fronts bring a rousing thunderstorm on the 19th. Lingering
clouds and perhaps more rain to the end of the period. Colder temps feed in for
about 12 days. (Sun with Saturn)

Technical: Aries on 1st, Sun, Moon, Saturn. Sagittarius on 1st.

Thursday,
April 22, 2001, First Quarter moon

        
An aggressive
period of strong weather that we haven't seen in a while. Temps could be very
chilly.

      
Sun and dismal Saturn
are still together and are creating a pattern of stormy, wet and destructive
energy most of the week. Possible clearing on the 26th. On the 27th, the
northeast has a chance of being involved in the fronts that will crisscross to
bring heavy rains and very unsettled conditions. A windy t-storm may close out
this active quarter moon.

Technical: Sagittarius on 4th, Pluto. Virgo on 1st. Fixed grand cross.

Friday,
April 30, 2001, Full Moon, First of May Day!

         
Saturn is still
with the Sun and temperatures may be on the cool side, yet windy on a fair May
Day. Note-Saturn in the sign Taurus brings new responsibilities to Taureans
over the next two point five years. Unsettled conditions flip flop with cold,
then warm air and fast moving air. An exciting reversal brings on the glow of
springtime 7-8th. Windy on the 8th. A fast, small disturbance to welcome the
quarter moon period.

Technical: Libra on 4th, Mars, Moon. Cancer on 1st.

Saturday,
May 8,2001, Last Quarter moon

       
The fair weather
fades out to let rainy, unsettled weather seep in with a low forming mid-week.
A moderating effect and a warming trend moving in with higher humidity the
13-14th.

Technical: Scorpio on 4th, Pluto. Virgo on 1st.

Saturday,
May 15, 2001, New Moon

        
Moisture moves up
from the south for a period of higher humidity and steady rain, plus a downpour
on the 18th looks strong with lightning. There is a strong wind/breeze about.
Jupiter is perihelion and high-pressure forms later in the week, around the
20th and a stationary Uranus can give us brilliant sunshine. A t-storm ushers
in the quarter moon.

Technical: Virgo on 4th. Cancer on 1st, Venus.

Saturday,
May 22, 2001, First Quarter moon

       
Severe wind in the
area. It is unusual but funnel clouds may threaten in the northeast. Tune in
your local meteorologists for up-to-date info. Thunderstorm activity on the
25th. Warming trend leading to fair days. Possible T-storm on the change to the
Full Moon as we prepare for a long period of extended heat and strong drying
conditions. A very active week for Rhode Islanders in general. Drive with
utmost caution this week.

Technical: Gemini on 4th. Aquarius on 1st. Mars opposes Jupiter.

Sunday,
May 30, 2001, Full Moon

       
The stickies
arrive in full force and the dry air indications persist - which one dominates?
My guess is the tropical air winning out. Refreshing winds on the 4th, fair but
warm to hot weather through the 6th. Threat of scattered thunderstorms all week
and weeks to come.

      Mars brings in warm weather and
the westerlies while Jupiter brings in the northerly wind flow. When they clash
- Boom! A neat thunderstorm. Mars and Jupiter are in position to dance with
each other for a few weeks bring on the fronts!

Technical: Cancer on 4th, Venus. Aries on 1st, Jupiter, Saturn.

Sunday,
June 6th, 2001, Last Quarter moon

      
Warm and breezy
with a few clouds. High pressure brings northwest breezes and very pleasant
weather. More sultry on the 9-10th that could inspire a clash of fronts for a
neat thunderstorm. The 11-12th looks to revert back to more humid air.

Technical: Gemini on 4th, Sun, Mercury. Aquarius on 1st, Moon.

Sunday,
June 13, 2001, New Moon

       
Overcast, misty or
fog to begin this New Moon. Warming trend builds to a more fair weather pattern
with some tropical overtones. The heat increases on the 16th and by the 19th;
we will have some wind as low forms and will move in just ahead of the quarter
moon bringing in a squall or storm.

Technical: Capricorn on 4th, Neptune, Uranus. Libra on 1st, Mars.

Sunday,
June 20, 2001, First Quarter moon

        
Lingering gray sky
and with Sun trying to peek out of the clouds indicates unsettled conditions
for the week. Stay tuned for the summer report. J Acute storm breeders Mars
& Jupiter continue their T-storm rampage and the birthchart for the summer
season in Rhode Island holds many surprises.

Season Overview

After a
cold beginning to the spring season, we will warm up to the acute heat and
storm breeder planets, Mars & Jupiter. The pair will be in opposition
aspect for several weeks in May and June and dominate the weather picture in
the USA and around the globe. Mars and Jupiter activity tend to promote dryness
and drought during extended contact and will promote the evaporation of
moisture. A tension aspect to the planet Uranus indicates electrical storms and
ripping northwest winds making for a rather ragged upper level airflow

For
contrast, Venus and Saturn are side by side to bring us extended rain, early
spring snows, gray skies and uncomfortable humidity in some locations. Neptune,
a planet that can indicate the possibility of flooding is found at 74west
longitude in the areas of western Pennsylvania, Ohio and south to Florida, the
Bahamas and Cuba. Should both weather indications manifest from week to week,
we could be looking at 'baked mud'.

A third
combination of planets is Mercury (wind) Sun (warmth) and Jupiter (breezy and
balmy) and condenses into the fair weather patterns in-between the storms a few
weeks into the season. The wind indications are for tornadoes in selected areas
of the USA and very gusty winds as noted in the regional summaries.
