Winter Solstice

This is the general weather outlook for the winter season. Monthly forecasts posted will bring more specific details, however the monthly weather will have the basic pattern forecast here.

Upstate NY & East coast
After a lovely, calm, warm fall, it looks like a rougher winter. Pluto forebodes extreme and destructive weather with a cross placement from each of the 4 elements. The good news is this in not the worst planetary pattern placements we have seen this year; that was the Summer Solstice chart. So the winter should not be as damaging as it could be. Still we want to be alert; especially places with Pluto and Saturn running near where you live.

We can expect extreme, sometimes damaging cold and long-lasting storms, mixed with some moderate temperatures, thawing and pleasant days from Jupiter and Sun influences.

• Uranus and Pluto run through eastern ME, suggesting unpredictable weather and warmer weather.
• Mars can bring warmth from western MI arching through the ID/OH border area, down through eastern KY and TN, and then down through central GA and western FL
• Mercury brings cooler to colder weather and wind from MN down through the AR/AL border area.
• Neptune brings water from central MT, WY, CO, and AZ
• And Moon brings water from eastern MT/Wy down through central CO and AZ.

International
Cautionary locations:

• Pluto runs through eastern Africa (Ethiopia, Zaire, Angola, South Africa)
• Neptune runs through western China, Mongolia, and mid Russian Federation. Neptune also runs through Mexico.
• Uranus runs through eastern China, Mongolia and centra/eastern Russian Federation. It also runs the length of the center of South America.

Weather can happen anywhere on the planet, though these are the most likely places this week. Best to be prepared at home, and on the local government level.

Uranus up through central India into western China, eastern Kyrgyzstan and into the Russian Federation. And down through central Canada, USA, and Mexico

Neptune runs up from the eastern tip of Somalia, along the bored of Yemen/Oman/Saudi Arabia, through central Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan and through the Russian Federation

Pluto runs through the eastern Ivory Coast, Upper Volta, Mali, Algeria, western tip of Tunisia, mid Italy, through to Warsaw and onto St. Petersburg.

Jan 9 – 15

Full Moon 7:30 am GMT

9th usually dry on the full moon

Likely Weather Events:

Jan 13 moon crosses equator headed south.

Pohjois-Amerikka

East Coast

There is some Neptune activity through the vertical/central Maine (north/south) where there is a greater likelihood of wetter than normal conditions.

Unusually pleasant weather from NY City straight up through the capital, Albany, and up into Canada is more likely.

Central Midwest

More pleasant Jupiter weather for the midwest from Houston up through western Arkansas, central Missouri, eastern Iowa, and central Minnesota. And about 150 miles to the west, Saturn is likely to cause gloomy, longer lasting and cold storms—from central Texas ad Arkansas, eastern Kansas, western Iowa and South Dakota, and central North Dakota.

Both Jupiter and Saturn run into Canada's central (Jupiter) and western (Saturn) Ontario. These two planets also run through central Mexico.

Western Midwest/Southwest

Moon and Sun run down through eastern Alberta Canada, eastern Montana, and Idaho, and central Utah, and Arizona; and down into western Mexico. Expect a mixture of warm/dry and cooler/wetter weather.

Northwest/West

From Vancouver BC, Seattle, and Portland down to San Francisco, Pluto will have its way, with likely more extreme and possibly destructive weather. A word to the wise — better to be prepared and send blessings for the best weather possible. Get flashlights/batteries, water, food, and blankets on hand just to be safe.

Kansainvälinen

• The most likely places where severe weather events will take place this week are along the paths these planets make throughout the earth:
• Mars runs up from Somalia and eastern Ethiopia, through central North Yemen and Saudi Arabia, eastern Iraq and western Iran, and into the Russian Federation. Hotter, dryer conditions may also trigger extreme conditions — particularly unexpected events in the Russian Federation where Mars and Uranus meet.
• Saturn runs across northern Greenland, and also along the southwest coast of India, central Pakistan, eastern Afghanistan up into Kazakhstan. You are more likely to find colder, longer lasting storms this week.
• Uranus runs up through South Yemen and Iran and into the Russian Federation. Unexpected events are most likely to happen in these areas — particularly in the Russian Federation where Uranus meets Mars.
• Neptune runs up the central African continent, through Egypt western Turkey, eastern Ukraine, and into the Russian Federation. It is more likely to find extreme wet conditions in these areas this week.
• Pluto runs through the very eastern tip of Brazil, also through eastern China, Russian Federation, northern Scandinavia and western UK — it is more likely to find extreme and possibly destructive weather in these areas this week.

Likely Weather Events:

Jan 17 Moon perigee

Jan 20 moon maximum declination south

This week Uranus runs up the east coast from eastern MA through western-most ME. This is a week to expect the unexpected!

Mars triggers warmer weather from western NY State down through Wilmington NC

The central USA is generally calmer with no major planetary influences.

From central TX, KS, and eastern NE and SD/ND it should be moderate and wetter.

From Bismarck ND straight down through west-central TX Neptune suggests more rain.

And warmer, more pleasant weather in in store for OR and WA, and the north western tip of CA.

The most likely places where severe weather events will take place this week are along the paths these planets make throughout the earth: Africa gets the influence of all 5 planets these days.

• Mars runs vertically through central Africa (Cameroon, Niger, Libya, and up through Yugoslavia, Hungary, Poland, Latvia. Expect warm weather and possible triggering of more dramatic weather when other planets transit nearby.
• Saturn runs through Madagascar, Somalia, Northern Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq and Syria, through Turkey, and the Ukraine. Saturn also runs through Vancouver and Vancouver BC. A Saturn midheaven runs through eastern Brazil. Here we can expect longer, cooler/colder weather.
• Uranus runs from Cape Town, Namibia, Angola, Zaire, up through Chad and Libya, and up through Yugoslavia, Hungary, and Poland. Expect the unexpected.
• Neptune runs from Liberia through Algeria, through France and Germany. Be prepared for more water
• Pluto runs through South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Zaire, Sudan, Egypt, Romania, Ukraine, Belorous, Latvia, and Finland. Pluto also runs through the Boliva/Peru border, Brazil, and Guyana. More likely these areas will see intense and extreme weather patterns.

In AZ, Saturn meets up with Moon and is near the Sun; weather will be similar to AZ
• Mercury transits from the San Francisco/Sacramento CA area straight up near Portland OR and through Tacoma & Seattle WA — colder windy weather is more likely.

Kansainvälinen

The most likely places where severe weather events will take place this week are along the paths these planets make throughout the earth:

• Mars runs down central Brazil, and also down from western Russian Federation, through the eastern block countries, passing through Egypt, Sudan, Zaire, Zambia, Botswana, and South Africa where warmer than normal weather is likely to develop. Where other planets are within 150 miles from the Mars line, more extreme events are more likely to be triggered (such as northern Turkey and eastern Ukraine. 24th Jan
• Saturn runs down the western Russian Federation through Iran…and also in northern Greenland — here longer lasting storms and cold weather is likely.
• Uranus transits up through western Australia and through western Russia; and also across central Brazil and western Greenland. Expect the unexpected this week.
• Neptune rises through Nigeria, Niger, and Libya, and up through the eastern block countries where likely excess rain will be seen.

• Things look mostly clear from the east coast to the central states.
• Weather extremes begin with Pluto running From ND straight down to the TX/AR/LA border.
• A little further west, Neptune calls for the unexpected from mid Dakotas down through central TX
• Mars and Venus travel close enough together out west to have their weather effects combined. This can cause excessive heat and moisture for a stormy outcome.
