Hicks Forecasts for Septic mber.

A regular storm period Is central on Sep
TENDER the LIST, extending up to the 4th. The
month promises to come in with areas of high
temperature, low barometer and storms
making their transit from west to east. The
climax, or elimination of this period will fall
on and touching the End, the date of the full
moon. If high barometer and westerly gales
follow these storms, look for change TO much
cooler with frosts possible in the north. But
the moon does not pass the celestial equator,
coming north, until the 9th strongly indicating
that high temperature and threatening elec
trical storms may not subside entirely at the
end of the first period. The LIST to the 4th is
also probable seismic period.
A reaciionary storm period is central on
the 7th and 9Th and this fact, most probably,
will cause storms which originate on the 9th
to continue over the 7th and 9Th. If high
barometer follows close behind any of the
early September storm areas, frost will be
almost certainty in northern sections.
A regular storm period is central on the
18th and covers the 10th to the 10Th. This
period is co incident with the September
magnetic crisis, which earth passes annually
from September 9th to 10th. Look for high
Temperature, low barometer, threatening storm
clouds and severe electrical phenomena, cen
tering progressively on the 11th to 18th.
Here again it is predetermined whether high
barometer from the northwest and change TO
much cooler will follow these storms-prob-
lematical, because the new moon on the
celestial equator is just ahead on the 18th.
A reactionary storm period is central on
the 18th and 18th and 10Th. This period will
carry the earth to the center of its autumnal
equinox. 1t will also inaugurate a series OF
storms and changes, on land and sea, that
will prove clear lines of demarkation between
our SIMMER and autumn. We figure that
such storms will be heard from within sixty
hours of noon on the 18th. During the same
period many storms of rain, wind and thunder
are apt to visit inland parts of the country
generally, with possible tornado here and
there. Within the limits named-sixty hours
from noon on the 18th, seismic throes and vol
canc outbreaks are among the phenomena to
be anticipated. We warn our readers that
equatorial disturbances in the gulf region are
more than probable at this time, that sympa-
thetic, counter storms will meet them from
boreal regions, and that very marked changes
to cold autumnal weather will set in with the
high barometric wave that will displace the
storms. The moon is in perigee, or NEAREST
the earth, on the Dist and this fact will greatly
increase the tendency to tidal waves at this
period.
A regular storm period runs from the 22nd
to 10Th, being affected by mercury, earth and
the entering of the Venus period. We must
keep steadily in mind, also, that the Jupiter
and Saturn period are exerting their combined
energy during all these periods. From Sun
day the 2Srd TO Wednesday the 18th is a time
of maximum storm probability. Look for a
comminging oftropical and boreal conditions,
bringing rain, wind and thunder in some parts
with possible seet and early spurts OF snow III
the far north. A reactionary disturbance is
central on the 29th and Both, causing low
barometer and general change to storm con
ditions as September goes out.
