Monsoon Onset Forecast

get_monsoon_forecast

Read the monsoon-onset signature for a place from the Ardra Pravesha chart (the chart for the Sun's entry into the Ardra nakshatra, the classical KP marker for the monsoon). Returns one astrometeorology signature under 'weather', with temperature, precipitation, and wind/storm channels each carrying signal, score, band, and signatures, plus the 4th-cusp CSL verdict, the Sapta Nadi block, a summary, and a disclaimer, alongside an 'ardraPravesha' block describing the ingress chart itself. Inputs: latitude, longitude, utc_offset_minutes, optional ayanamsa, optional location_label, and an optional 'year' (defaults to the current year). Use when: you want a monsoon-onset and rainfall read for a location and year. The bands show the signatures behind them.
