Have you posted this before or have I missed it? Apologies if you

How does this work and what evidence is there that the moon has this effect?

New to me. I can't recall it ever being mentioned in a broadcast
forecast. (Mind you weather hardly gets a mention either, just
motherly advice about umberellas, and wooly hats etc.)

I have posted this stuff in times past. Yes.

How it works I don't really wish to even offer a guess, as I am the
only one of the half dozen or so thaumaturges that I know of, who is
looking at the right answer. I should hate to set a theory in motion as
they are the bane of scientific understanding.

What has predicting the weather from the moon and the sun, got to do
with witchery. And why use a French word when a good English one like
"Magician" will suffice?

It has to be something to do with the time lag and inertia of the Three
Body Problem.

rather have an honest skeptic examine my ideas than a dozen ingenuous
disciples any day.

For evidence you only have to do the same as I am doing with respect to
the weather in your area and you will soon get a feel for it.
