Astrometeorological Fall/Winter 2006 Weather Outlook
A Very Stormy Winter 2007 Arrives Early This Year
By Theodore White/Pro Astrometeorologist

Astromet Weather Outlook Produced: May 2006
**Updated: Sept./October 2006**

Prepare for a colder than normal, and fast
autumn, and a early, and stormier, colder, winter season
just ahead. Winter 2007 ~ in my astromet forecast ~
officially begins early November 2006.

General Climate Conditions This Fall & Early Winter ~

A Colder, moist atmosphere w/very stormy, wet weather
Sudden Frosts & Freeze Warnings (August/September/October)
Early & Surprise Snowfalls (as early as September/October)
Below Average Cold Temperatures (September/October/November)
Torrential rains & Severe Weather (October/November)
Flash Flooding Events (entire fall & winter season)
Ice Events (October/November/late Dec.)
Gusty & Damaging Winds (October/end of Nov./all of December)
Low cloud ceilings
Widespread & Dense Fogs (September/October-mid-November)
Slippery Conditions on Roads - Drivers add & check fog-lights

The Coming Earlier Than Normal Winter ~

Snows That Are Early This Year
Widespread Icy Conditions
Blizzards & Gusty Winds
Below Average Colder Temperatures
Wind-Chills

The months of September & October 2006 see strong
lunar transits, as the Moon's force raises worldwide
ocean tides higher than usual. Expect stormy conditions
that include flooding from tropical events like
hurricanes, and torrential rains to cause serious
problems throughout the world. Preparing for heavy
rains, and flooding in those months is wise, as well
for the coming colder than normal fall season, and
early winter conditions.

Look for below average temperatures - chilly air -
especially early mornings, and during the days, in the
months of August, and September. Frost will not
be uncommon during August/September with freeze
warnings.

Unseasonably cool temperatures in New England, Northeast, Upper
Midwest, Mid-Atlantic & Southeastern states. The Northern
Plains, and Inter-Mountain states could see earlier snows
arriving by September, early October with freeze warnings
and cooler than normal temperatures. Even
areas of the Pacific Northwest and Northern
California will see cooler than average temperatures
increasing in August/September as signs of a early winter
season will increasingly appear in the west as well.

The coming Fall Season is going to be colder
than normal, with October's air cooler, and
most people by that time noticing that early
fall seems to have been in August/September,
and that by October, it feels more like late
fall. Morning temperatures by that time will
be below freezing in regions like the New England,
the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest. Even regions
in the Southwest, such as Arizona, will note the
early fall conditions.

Despite the blistering heat that will cover most
of North America, my astrometeorological
outlook calls for a fall season that develops
earlier than normal, and the coming of a cold,
snowy, wet, and windy winter season ahead.

The coming autumn & winter seasons reveal that
summer 2006 will be quicker than usual, though
with above normal temperatures, and below normal
temperatures affecting most of the United States.
Summer has arrived earlier than usual and will
end early as well.

According to my calculations, the change will
be quite noticable by late September/early
October, and very clear by the end of October,
close to the weekend of return to standard
daylight time - that winter has come.

October is a drier month overall in PNW,
but the temperatures are colder than normal. Expect variable, dry
conditions for most of the month, but remember
to bundle up against what feels like late,
rather than early fall conditions w/ cooler temperatures
and a cutting cold nip in the air that most of the country
will feel.

That is winter ~ just around the
corner, and arriving early.

**The October Perigee "Super Moon" ~

The October 7th "Harvest Moon" is 12% larger
in the skies and this full moon cycle starts
a perigee phase that brings it closer to
the Earth than normal, thus, affecting atmospheric,
land, and tidal lifts. October 7 to October 15 is
the start of powerful weather days for the central
to eastern U.S., from north to south.

October 10-15 reveals a strong lunar maximum
taking place during perigee cycle. Stormy
weather always takes place during such
maximum declinations of the Moon, and with
this expect colder troughs, early snows,
and colder than normal temperatures like
those expected in the Upper Midwest, Plains &
Northeast with colder temperatures reaching
into the Southeast and Southern states. It
is possible to see blizzard conditions with
this lunar perigee in the Great Lakes & Midwest under the
planetary and lunar positions.

The Super Moon perigee is at maximum declination
to the north from Oct. 7 to Oct. 19 overall with
peak maximum during the week of Oct. 10-16. It is
important for those from the Midwest to the South,
SE, Mid-Atlantic, NE, and New England to prepare
for severe weather, flash flooding, powerful winds,
ice/sleet on roads, snow, and potential blizzard-like
conditions week of October 10-15 with unseasonable colder
than normal temperatures for fall. Mind the roads
and prepare for very cold and stormy conditions.

Last Quarter Moon is October 13, and is during
peak maximum northern declination with severe
weather continuing early through the week of
October 15/16, but waning, and giving a break
to recover, with a lift in temperatures, clearing skies
and variable weather, between Oct. 18-27
before another polar NW trough repeats, and
returns by October 27 into early
November with heavy rains, gusty winds,
and colder than normal temperatures.

The end of October is stormy, wet, and cold,
with the first significant snows of the season falling
around the time of Halloween into early November 2006.

Earlier snowfalls in September & October come as a surprise.
Expect chilly, wet & very windy conditions, especially the torrential
rains of late October & November, and the colder
than normal temperatures of October, and again, in
November.

In November, guard against a return of flooding events in
the Upper Midwest, Ohio Valley, Mid-Atlantic,
and states near the Mason-Dixon line, including
Maryland, Washington DC, and northern VA. Torrential
November rains, thick fogs, and colder than
normal temperatures make for dangerous driving
and travel conditions in the Pacific Northwest
and California.

Winter 2007 will arrive earlier than normal
in most parts of the country, including New
England, the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Upper
Midwest, and Pacific Northwest ~
all having stormy winter conditions, and
below average cold temperatures, gusting
winds, stormier precipiations of cold
rains, snow, and ice ~ earlier than usual.

Winter arrives by November 2006, and is at
an end by late February/early March 2007.

Although there will be blistering heat
throughout regions of the country this summer,
temperatures will be cooler than normal heading
into mid-September, but a very warm end to
summer.

The 2006 Fall season arrives more like "mid-autumn"
than early autumn - with tree colorations speeding
along at an accelerated pace - peaking earlier
than nonrmal due to the below normal nightly
low temperatures.

Many of the weather changes
will take place that month due to planetary
transits. Venus picks up speed and turns to
"Evening Star" phase at the end of October
(Oct. 30-31) indicating an early winter
season on tap with significant snows
and precipitation this coming winter.

The last 10 days of October will verify
this forecast. Transits at that time
clearly show colder, and wetter conditions,
that will precede the onset of strong "winter-like"
conditions ahead in November.

Very hot nationally in early June/July
and August, the traditional summer months.
A hot, humid and steamy end comes in
September with October, a variable and cool month.

The month November 2006 is colder, and wetter
than normal with snows, heavy rains, gusty winds,
and colder temperatures into late November.

Expect thick fogs, lower cloud cover, and
surprise weather events feeling more like
winter, than autumn. November is a very
wet month, colder, with heavy rains,
very gusty winds, and early snows
in geographic regions used to seeing snows
by early December rather than in early/mid November.

December continues November's theme, but is
more active & colder than normal, and winter
conditions will have taken place prior to the
Winter Solstice of 22 December when the
Sun enters tropical Capricorn. We may experience
a brief "warming" cycle in the middle of December,
due to a strong upper Pacific jet with powerful
low level, and blasting winds, but winter resumes
its stormy blasts into January 2007, a very cold
month - feeling more like deep February.

Winter basically gets to North America
much earlier than last year, about six
weeks, and completes itself rather quickly
by mid-February/early March 2007.

GOOD!!
I am so sick of summer!

[shellylay81]

I love the temp as they are right now in Georgia.. its low to mid 80's and cloudy.. I'm not much of a BRIGHT sun in my face type of person. :) Humidity is letting up as well, yay!

Can't beat that, but, it won't last with what is coming. Expect to see more of the NW troughs this autumn, and the coming winter runs will be similiar in nature this winter.

[dgal]

I am wondering if there is really anything to astrometeorology. Please don't take offense Theo. It's an honest question. I honestly know nothing about it. It does seem to me that the predictions you shared with us seem rather bazaar. That said, I'll take the early winter down here in Texas. Is this the basis of weather almanacs?

Don

[Dustin]

I would not even go there bro...all you need to do is check the other wx sites for info on theo.

Don

Hi Don, no, I don't take offense at all. Forecasting weather astronomically is what the term "meteorology" means, so, it isn't bizzare, but natural. Conventional meteorology would not have existed if it were not for the classical astrologers who invented. It has been one the main four branches of classical scientific astrology for many centuries.

As for my weather outlook. Last spring, I forecasted a colder autumn season for this year, and a early winter. You'll feel the cold air this month, even in Texas, but the center of the country ~ from the Great Lakes to the Heartland, and Deep South, all the way to the east ~ is going to experience winter in early October. About 16-18 states (perhaps more) will get some taste of this arctic pressure system, and there will be snow.

Other than the cold temps, and precip, it will be the winds making the story as well. The wind-chills coming during this event will make it much colder. This is a preview of the earlier winter on the way, according to my astromet calculations.

[Theo]

I would not even go there bro...all you need to do is check the other wx sites for info on theo.

Yes, like check my astromet weather forecasts and outlooks, like those posted at The Old Farmer's Almanac, and then watch the weather. I have forecasted a colder autumn season, and a early winter this year for the country.

[Theo]

I love the temp as they are right now in Georgia.. its low to mid 80's and cloudy.. I'm not much of a BRIGHT sun in my face type of person. :) Humidity is letting up as well, yay!

It's going to get colder... even for Georgia at this time of year. Bundle up and stay warm down there Shellylay!

[Theo]

Those in the Northeast, all along the Mid-Atlantic coast should take care with the Oct. 27-30 storm event ~ especially minding the gusty winds, which will be strongest Saturday, Oct. 28, as the lunar maximum declination to the south takes place. See the astromet weather outlook noting the weather of the weekend of return to standard time. Stay safe out there.

[Dustin]

I hope that we have some cold weather soon. Predicted 10 days out, by TWC.

Well, Dustin, seeing that you live in Georgia, and that Florida has had some record low temperatures, are you saying that is not cold in Georgia in the mornings at this time? Meanwhile, more U.S. cities are recording snowfalls ahead of time. Cleveland just received 6-inches of snow today, for example.

[Dustin]

I posted that 4 or 5 days ago, now it is cold in the mornings. Don't try to trick me up. lol ;)

[satx_pilot]

Where's winter? This is just WRONG

This Afternoon: Mostly sunny, with a high near 90. North northwest wind around 10 mph.

I KNOW!! JEES I am starting to really hate Texas..we have had almost 90 degree weather for two days in a row...and now tonight, supposed to get down to 55 and then high of 65 for tomorrow..its a wonder all of us are not sick as dogs.

[Dustin]

Theo being wrong, what a concept./headbang

Well Bob, I suggest you remember that since you are in Texas, and closer to the Tropic of Cancer, that you take a look at the rest of the United States for winter weather in the month of October rather than suggesting that my weather outlook is "wrong" based on Texas weather, which isn't exactly winter even in the winter season. Try not to paint your "mostly sunny, high near 90" Texas weather with a broad brush across the entire nation. I suppose you just believe that no snows have fallen anywhere in the country since last month? Or that record low temperatures have not been recorded nationwide? Where's winter? It ain't in Texas.

Texas HAS had record lows this month..I would love to see snow this year.

[crossdresser]

Texas should have a wetter than normal winter,including the southern states above normal temps for the northern plains and upper midwest.We will see how it all plays out over the next three months or so.But we all know that the winter outlook is not always accurate.

[Theo]

Theo being wrong, what a concept./headbang

Again, Dustin, it seems you've joined the class of people out there who assign "wrong" to skill sets they cannot yet master, while, at the same time avoiding the constantly wrong mets out there who are nearly always "wrong," as you would put it, when it comes to weather forecasting.

Once you start taking the climate and weather much more
seriously (it can mean life & death & loss of property very
easily) then you might learn to appreciate long-range
forecasting with more respect than you give now Dustin.

The weather is serious business Dustin, and all those people out
there who are going from the mid-60s to below zero in
just two days will not find it funny to think that a long
range weather forecast that calls for an early winter is "wrong"
since obviously, that is, if you are seeing the national weather
in the real world, cannot be true.

Try less moralizing about "Theo's" ability to forecast
advance weather and paying more attention yourself
to the weather in the real world.

Does winter look "late" to you? Or early? How can my forecast calling
for a early winter be "wrong?"

[Theo]

Texas HAS had record lows this month..I would love to see snow this year.

Texas will see snow, and cold, but my point above was that you cannot judge the weather (like last week's sunny/warm) and then say that winter isn't here as many have said. Winter wasn't in Texas last week, but it is this week, and, as you pointed out, Texas has had record lows this month... but, depending on where you are in Texas, you will, or will not see snow... but it will be getting rather colder than normal in parts of the state.

Relax Zues, don't get your panties in a wad. I was merely complaining that in my part of the world winter has been teasing us. HOT COLD HOT COLD

Today, winter has temporarily arrived.

And who's Bob?

Theo,

If you would ever be quiet long enough to listen, you would realize what you are saying is CALLED THE WEATHER. Every winter has big cold spells, it happens every single year, Theo.

Here is a quote from a pm I got.


And I recalled that Theo predicted a superstorm for last March along the East Coast similar to the 1993 Superstorm. Well, that too didnt happen.

And we he gave out his dates of winter like weather for us here in the west, he said only Nov.5-12 would be rough with the rest of November being quiet. Then, Theo predicted for us to get winter like weather again the week of Dec.4-12 and the week of Dec.19. Now he's predicting like totally something different

Of course you can explain that away.

[Theo]

Theo,

If you would ever be quiet long enough to listen, you would realize what you are saying is CALLED THE WEATHER. Every winter has big cold spells, it happens every single year, Theo.

Here is a quote from a pm I got.



Of course you can explain that away.

I wouldn't believe everything I get in a "pm" from the people who "recall" anything I've forecasted as you associate yourself with Dustin.

My long-range forecasts speak for themselves. I don't need to defend them. Mother Nature verfies all forecasts. Tens of thousands of people on The Old Farmer's Almanac seem to take me seriously, and I get thousands of emails from people all over the country thanking me for my weather forecasts who told me I've saved crops, property, and lives from damage because they took my astrometeorological weather forecasts for the early winter seriously.

Listen Dustin, if you use all that energy you've got doing positive things, rather fighting amongst yourselves on weather boards constantly picking one another over millions of meaningless weather points on boards full of rude, snooty people who think they own the skies, or meteorology, (I get emails about these people too whose junk, and personal comments contaminate good boards) constantly ~ then you are NOT going to learn anything about forecasting weather whatsover. That is what meteorology is all about. So, quit with "know it all" attitude. Get yourself an ephemeris. Observe the world's weather. Learn to read it rather than bickering like juveniles on weather boards, ok? Chill out man.

You live in the state of Georgia, right? And just last week you were combative with me over Thanksgiving asking "where is winter in the country Theo?" in a mocking tone in your posts. Do you notice that winter is already here Dustin?

Weather is serious business, and many people need to read long-range forecasts to prepare ahead of time. Or, are you going to rationalize this early winter as you have above in that statement directed rudely at me?

I'd appreciate it if you would stop that Dustin, and show some manners, ok? Because you seem like a nice guy, very interested in meteorology, and, I know you are still a student, but, you might want to stop with the personal comments about me, or distorting my forecasts. You don't know me at all, and you've got more to learn from me than I do from you at this time.

Try to be more positive, drop the snickers, the ego, the juvy tone, rather be aware that the weather is NOT a video game, ok? People are really hurting out there (early winter is here as I've forecasted nearly eight months ago) and you shouldn't play with others on serious weather boards by posting inaccurate, rude, and silly comments. Try knowing that there is more for you to learn rather than thinking inside of a box. Think outside it Dustin ~ and please ~ think for yourself.

Don't write to me, or on my threads if you cannot restrain yourself, and behave like a gentleman rather than singly being combative. We can "argue" over weather anytime, but, first, I think you need to learn how to argue, rather than debate on matters you're not proficient in yourself. When that happens, you take the role of a learner ~ because that is how you become expert in forecasting advance weather. It's called hard work.

Try it sometime.
