The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1901-11-01
HICKS NOVEMBER WEATHER.

The stars in connection with Fri
day and Saturday, the first and
second indicate that reactiocary
disturbance will be central on these
dates, causing a rise in tenn
perature, falling barometer and
scattering storms and squalls of
rain and snow from about the list
to the 3lri
A sharp sudden rise OF the barom-
cter and r!s;,N':>' 20 crlder VI III follow
CLOSE after til, IT disturbances, but as
lu! len Oh, II e. lack to storm condi-
tiy. : will come about the 5th in west
era eN;r,enleS.
The regular Vulcan storm period
begins on the 5th, is central on the
9TH and. extends to the 10th. The
moon is on the celestial equator on
the 5th, passing to it's south declina-
ton. Hence a marked rise Of tenn
peratrre with corresponding fall
of the barometer, followed by pos
sib1e thunder storms southwark, will
set in early in this Vulcan period.
About Wednesday the 9Th to Sun
day the 10th, storm of wind, rain
and snow will make their transit
from west to east across the country
Remember, storm centers, like rail-
road trains, do not cover the whole
country at once, but make their
passages ACROSS it; hence storms will
begin in western parts days before
;:ney reach extreme eastern sections
being in middle parts of the country
on intermediate days. A decided
cold wave will be well adj anced
from the northwest before the low
barometer and storms Of this period
reach the Atlantic.
Only brief intermission; will
intervene between this Vulcan per-
iod and the reactionary change due
from the 1th to the 18th. Conjun-
ction Of the Moon and Sun and
Earth or new moon on the 18th will
check the tendency to high baron
eter and cold and sudden return
to warmer low barometer and rain
1,n oh
Monday then to Thursday the
18th. These reactionary storms
will be followed by a more persis-
tent and general change to wintery
conditions and sharp cold will be
general over central and northern
sections for several days leading up
to the Vulcan storm period central
on the 18th. This Vulcan storm
period extends from the 10th to the
goth, the goth being the central day
Of the Venus period with the moon
again on the celestial equator in her
passage from south to north de-
clination. Some of the most de
cidetl storms of the month may be
expected from about Sunday the
18th to Tuesday the 21st. These
storms will reach crises on and
touching the goth, rain wind and
thunder being followed in many
sections within a few hours by
northwesterly gales, driving snow
and change to freezing. Note this
prediction and heed it or suffer dis
comfort and loss in all regions to
the northward. Danger may be
apprehended at this time all over
the northern lakes and on the
north Atlantic seas. The mort h
Pacific ocean will not wholly escape
severe boreal storms at this time.
The freezing weather following
the last storms will reach to warmer
from the 23rd to Goth. On the 25th
the Moon is full and in perigee, or
nearest to the earth. 1t is also in
direct opposition with Earth and
Sun on he 25th, causing an eclipse
OF the Moon in other parts of the
Earth. Look for many more storms
largely to a blizzardous character,
not more than forty eight hours
before or after shutdown on the 25th,
followed rapidly by a great rise of
the promoter and rushing cold
wave that will be felt far to the
south. Let shippers and navigators
on the north Atlantic and lakes be-
ware Of dangerous gales and change
to hurtful cold during and behind
these storms.
A regular Vulcan storm period re-
informed by Mercury, Venus, Jup-
ter period is central on the last day
