On September 22, 2020, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this late-morning natural-color image as Hurricane Teddy approached the Canadian Maritimes.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center warned of heavy rain and strong winds across the region, as well as large, destructive waves on the south coast of Nova Scotia.

Teddy the earliest 19th named storm of any Atlantic hurricane season that runs from June 1st to November 30th.

At 5 p.m. Atlantic Standard Time on September 22, Teddy was centered about 390 kilometres (245 miles) south of Halifax, Nova Scotia. Sustained winds were estimated at 150 kilometres (90 miles) per hour. The chart is captured for this event.

Jonah and the Whale c 1621 by Pieter Lastman

The Ascendant of 07 Aquarius gets the keyword of “Extreme” with its part of fortune 21 Aries suggesting “Instability,” fixed star Baiten Kaitos is nearby named for Jonah’s time in the Whale’s Belly. Despite his good fortune of getting out, the fixed star often means “peril” and “misfortune.”

Neptune the god of tidal waves and all things naval is found in his home of Pisces but intercepted in the first house. The little glyph in the 8th house at 22 Libra 28 is Hidalgo — a remnant from a previous chart — but is interesting as he is close to Mercury opposite the Part of Fortune at 20 Aries 53 i.e. Aries 21.

Hidalgo was discovered in September btw, in Germany, during a solar eclipse, and named for the Mexican Roman Catholic priest, Miguel Hidalgo y Costillo, who is honored on 16 September. Perhaps the Asteroid is there because this his time of year? There maybe something to that idea, he is showing up near some planet throughout September.

As the storm transitioned to an extratropical cyclone, storm warnings were posted for Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, and the Magdalen Islands.
