Strong wind and heavy snowfall: a powerful storm is moving to the northeast of the USA

American meteorologists are closely monitoring two storms that could potentially connect and lead to a large blizzard in the northeastern United States at the end of the week. But there is another scenario: snow can once again bypass coastal areas, which are already not too snowy last winter, writes Yahoo.

В двух городах — Балтиморе, штат Мэриленд, и Айлипе, штат Нью-Йорк, — впервые весь февраль не было снега. В конце месяца небольшие снежные осадки были в других городах региона — например, в Филадельфии, но сезонное количество все равно оставалось очень низким, в пределах 2% от нормы. Вашингтон, округ Колумбия, за всю зиму получил всего 4% от сезонной нормы снежных осадков.

Regardless of the scenario, weather meteorologists AccuWeather expect a sharp drop in temperature, which will lead to a sudden return of winter cold.

Two storms, located above the northern part of the Pacific Ocean and over southern California as of Monday, March 2, converge by the end of the week over the northwestern part of the Atlantic Ocean.

From how quickly and how close to the US coast a merger will occur with the formation of one powerful storm, it will depend on how far heavy snowfalls and strong winds spread to the northeastern United States and southeast Canada.

The first scenario is that these two storms will merge, but they will do it too late and too far from the northeast coast, therefore they will not be able to produce significant snowfall. Even in this scenario, light snow will still pass through parts of the northeastern states as one mild storm moves east.

Ожидается, что тихоокеанский шторм обрушится на район Великих озер в четверг, 5 марта, а затем — на северо-восток в пятницу, 6 марта.

«Независимо от того, как сольются два шторма, один из них во время своего движения даст дожди с мокрым снегом», — сказал главный метеоролог AccuWeather Берни Райно.

The Upper Midwest in the direction of the central Appalachian Mountains and the northeast will encounter snowfall, which can lead to the accumulation of sufficient rainfall for slippery roads and dangerous trips, especially where it will snow from late in the evening until early in the morning.

The storm stream will bring with it a portion of cold air, which will put an end to the hint of spring that the northeast felt in early March. When cold air enters the region, the winds will increase.

 

The temperature will drop 15-20 degrees Fahrenheit from March 5 to 6. Cold air and gusty wind will come to the region, regardless of whether two storms turn into one.

«В настоящее время наиболее вероятным сценарием является снесение снеговых потоков с Великих озер в направлении коридора шоссе Interstate 95 на северо-востоке 7 марта и в ночь на 8 марта», — сказал Райно.

«Устойчивый снег может пройти над Кейп-Кодом, Массачусетсом и над частью прибрежного штата Мэн», — добавил он.

In the second scenario, storms can quickly unite off the coast, which can lead to worsening weather conditions in the north-east of the country with strong winds, flooding of the coastal zone and serious interruptions in traffic.

В этом случае сильные осадки и, возможно, даже метели могут пройти в западной части региона в коридоре I-95 от Вашингтона, округ Колумбия, до Филадельфии, Нью-Йорка и Бостона, где пока держится снежная «засуха».

One of the key components of a large storm scenario off the coast has been absent all winter: a zone of constant high pressure at most atmospheric levels near Greenland. When this phenomenon is present, it contributes to the explosive intensification of storms near the northeast coast of the United States. But when there is no zone, storms may intensify, but they tend to move very quickly and may not have time to bring heavy snowfall into the I-95 corridor.

Even if this particular scenario at the end of the week does not lead to a big storm, such opportunities will arise in March one or two more times.
