Seattle Climate: January 2012 Snowstorm Might be Worst Blizzard Within Decades (PICTURES)
Residents from the Pacific Northwest tend to be bracing as Seattle weather will require a turn for that worse tonight. Forecasters are phoning for what may be the harshest winter snowstorm in a number of decades.
Weather.com reports on Seattle's weather, saying a "potential major winter storm" will hit both lower elevations and mountainous areas near the coast beginning Tuesday night, and will move east as far as Montana and the Northern Rockies.
The majority of the snow will drop on Wednesday, reviews The Seattle Occasions. Accumulation between 6 and 14 in . is expected. Which means that snowfall could split Seattle's single-day report of 14. 9 inches occur 1969.
Even when the storm does not really break the report, it could still drop in Seattle climate history by leaving probably the most snow at Seattle's Sea-Tac Airport terminal since 1985.
Seattlepi.com explains that Seattle can expect warmer weather later on Wednesday. Continued precipitation may turn to rain, and could lead to what meteorologist Cliff Mass has described as "slushmageddon."
Seattle climate, including surprising variants in precipitation between some other part of the city, could be blamed on convergence areas, according to The actual Seattle Times. The zones happen when "two currents associated with wind collide in a low elevation" and rise to produce more precipitation.
In spite of warmer than typical temperatures this winter season, the midwest sampled its first major snowstorm from the season last 7 days.
