A vehicle heads north on Williams Lake Road in Waterford during Metro Detroit’s first winter storm of 2024 on Friday, Jan. 12, 2024.
Don’t forget to check the local forecast before you hit the road: Snowfall could snarl post-Thanksgiving travel plans as 16 million are under winter alerts across the Great Lakes and the Central ...
To find out when temperatures are likely to dip below freezing, visit the weather service's website at weather.gov. USA TODAY also tracks weather watches and warnings nationwide, which you can ...
For lake-effect rain or snow to form, the air moving across the lake must be significantly cooler than the surface air (which is likely to be near the temperature of the water surface). Specifically, the air temperature at an altitude where the air pressure is 850 millibars (85 kPa ) (roughly 1.5 kilometers or 5,000 feet vertically) should be ...
A Heavy Freezing Spray Warning is issued by the National Weather Service of the United States to warn vessels that rapid accumulation and icing of freezing water droplets due to a combination of cold water, wind, cold air, and vessel or vehicle movement is likely.
On January 29, 2002, and again on January 30, 2023, the temperature dropped to −62 °F (−52.2 °C) at Middle Sink. Stephens and Wright's main study is the change in temperature through the inversion at these sites. These valleys act like a dam trapping cold air, with the coldest of the air settling to the bottom of the valley.
Snow squall warnings, high winds and more bitter cold is in the forecast.
Lake effect thundersnow occurs after a cold front or shortwave aloft passes over a body of water. This steepens the thermal lapse rates between the lake temperature and the temperatures aloft. A difference in temperature of 25 °C (45 °F) or more between the lake temperature and the temperature at about 1,500 m (4,900 ft) (the 850 hPa level ...
