Welcome to this website

Forecasting online up to 2019 seems to be a world first. Meteorologists are brilliant at what they actually do, because they have the technology for it, and that is to describe what is happening now. Although they cannot predict ahead for more than a day or so, it is nevertheless useful for some, but farmers and gardeners have a planning need to look further ahead. Most meteorologists will honestly admit they cannot forecast for more than a couple of days in advance, because in their minds and training, weather is 'chaos' and 'random'. We have often proved this idea to be incorrect. It is like saying you cannot predict the tides at the beach more than a day or two ahead because after today and tomorrow the water comes in and out whenever it feels like it.

A few clicks of a mouse gets you a forecast
Perhaps you are trying to decide the date of a wedding and you need a fine day. Or maybe you want to go to the mountains when the sun is shining on newly fallen snow. Maybe you are a farmer who only wants to employ a hay contractor when the weather is suitable. Here you can find all that out in minutes. We have NZ, Australia and Ireland and Japan and the USA will be added sometime in the future - this is being prepared now. As yet, this is not available automatically for Australia, because all data is not yet loaded, but we are working to rectify that. Meanwhile all Australian forecasts can and are being done manually, and any enquiries should be made at enquiries@predictweather.com

Products easy to order
All our products, including the almanacs for NZ, Australia and Ireland, are available from our shop page. There are many more waiting products to be loaded, including snow/ski reports for both NZ and Australia, and new calendars for each country. There are also new books in the pipeline. We will keep you informed of what becomes available. Please visit our free publications and e-books pages for free or nearly free products.

This website has been long in the preparation and has been designed with ease of navigation in mind and with a desire to deliver value as well as the tools of knowledge to learn the moon-method. Articles will be updated frequently especially those pertaining to current weather. Comments will also be made about conditions that lead to the cause of the weather. But on this website you will not find descriptions like "it was warmer because there was high pressure". We will tell you the real reasons for weather events, and mostly they are due to the moon. There are many articles here about how the moon does it; but basically the same pulling force that hauls the daily tides also hauls the air. The moon has no eyes or brain and so doesn't know where the water is. There is 10x more water in the air at any one time than all the world's rivers. The easiest way to think of it is as if the tide at the beach did not stay at the surface water level but went way up into the sky. It would be more weird if this did not happen.

Daily You-Tube
Every day we do a You Tube segment explaining the moon's role in current weather patterns. There will also be summary clips and specials which can be used in the classroom as teaching tools. As we put it in the public domain there is no need to ask for permission to use it. If you have a topic you would like to hear discussed or explained, email ken@weatherman.co.nz.
