美國多地迎來重大冬季風暴,降雪冰凍強風齊襲
一場重大的冬季風暴預計將影響美國多個地區,帶來大量降雪、冰凍和強風。在中大西洋地區,包括華盛頓特區,電腦模型顯示週三晚至週四可能出現冬季風暴,但風暴的時間、強度和路徑仍存在不確定性。歐洲模型顯示可能會出現大雪和強風,但也有可能只是輕微降雪。
在新澤西州,預計週六下午開始的冬季風暴將帶來高達5英寸的雪、冰、雨夾雪和暴雨。週日晚上預計會有高達60英里每小時的陣風,伴隨著氣溫急劇下降。美國國家氣象局已對八個縣的部分地區發布冬季天氣警報,預計積雪量為1至5英寸,部分地區冰凍積累量可達十分之一英寸。週日晚上的一股冷鋒將帶來更冷和更強風的天氣,可能導致停電和樹木損壞。
馬薩諸塞州也正在為一場混亂的冬季風暴做準備,預計週六開始下雪,並在週日清晨轉為冰和雨。北部地區的降雪量預計為5至8英寸,而南海岸、科德角和島嶼地區的降雪量預計為1至3英寸。凍雨可能導致0.10至0.25英寸的冰凍積累,造成危險的交通狀況和可能的停電。預計週一會有強風,陣風高達55英里每小時,風寒指數將降至接近或低於零度。
預報員還在監測下週晚些時候可能出現的另一場重大雪暴,但具體細節仍不確定。建議受影響地區的居民隨時關注天氣警報,並為惡劣天氣做好準備。
