  • 5.4.3 Severe Storm
    SECTION 5.4.3: RISK ASSESSMENT – SEVERE STORM 5.4.3 SEVERE STORM This section provides a profile and vulnerability assessment for the severe storm hazard. HAZARD PROFILE This section provides profile information including description, extent, location, previous occurrences and losses and the probability of future occurrences. Description For the purpose of this HMP and as deemed appropriated by the County, the severe storm hazard includes hailstorms, windstorms, lightning, thunderstorms, tornadoes, and tropical cyclones (e.g. hurricanes, tropical storms, and tropical depressions), which are defined below. Since most northeasters, (or Nor’Easters) a type of an extra-tropical cyclone, generally take place during the winter weather months, Nor’Easters have been grouped as a type of severe winter weather storm, further discussed in Section 5.4.2 Severe Winter Storm. Hailstorm: According to the National Weather Service (NWS), hail is defined as a showery precipitation in the form of irregular pellets or balls of ice more than five millimeters in diameter, falling from a cumulonimbus cloud (NWS, 2005). Early in the developmental stages of a hailstorm, ice crystals form within a low-pressure front due to the rapid rising of warm air into the upper atmosphere and the subsequent cooling of the air mass. Frozen droplets gradually accumulate on the ice crystals until, having developed sufficient weight; they fall as precipitation, in the form of balls or irregularly shaped masses of ice. The size of hailstones is a direct function of the size and severity of the storm. High velocity updraft winds are required to keep hail in suspension in thunderclouds.

    Minnesota WeatherTalk Newsletter for Friday, January 6, 2012 To: MPR Morning Edition Crew From: Mark Seeley, University of Minnesota Extension Dept of Soil, Water, and Climate Subject: Minnesota WeatherTalk Newsletter for Friday, January 6, 2012 Headlines: -Warm and record-setting start to January -Cold in Florida -Weekly Weather Potpourri -MPR listener question -Almanac for January 6th -Past Weather -Outlook Topic: Warm and record-setting start to January After starting New Years Day cold, icy, and snowy, the first week of January has brought temperatures that range from 8 to 12 degrees F warmer than normal on average, with all-time record-setting values on the 4th and 5th. For January 4th many western and southern communities reported new record high temperatures including: 47 F at Redwood Falls; 49 F at Browns Valley; 50 F at Luverne; 51 F at Pipestone and Montevideo; 52 F at Madison, Milan, and Canby; and 54 degrees F at Marshall and Minneota (both in Lyon County). The last reading is a new all-time state record high for January 4th, breaking the old record of 50 F at Worthington in 1930. Even more remarkable were the temperatures measured on Thursday, January 5th. It was clearly the warmest January 5th in state history as scores of observers reported new record high temperatures and the former state record high, 57 degrees F at Crookston in 1902, was shattered by a reading of 64 degrees F at Minneota (Lyon County) reached at 2:30 pm. Some of the new records included: 63 F at Marshall and Canby; 62 F at Granite Falls; 61 F at Madison and Montevideo; 59 F at Morris and Redwood Falls; 57 F at Pipestone, Wheaton, Willmar, Olivia, Tracy, and Luverne; 55 F at Fargo, Rochester, and Fergus Falls, and 54 at Moorhead and Worthington.

  • Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science
    A Century of Geology in Indiana. W. S. Blatchley. A wise man oiiee said that the Good Lord made the Geology of Indiana simple so that it could be easily understood by the State Geologists elected by the people. Whether the Almighty had that idea in mind, when the geological formations now constituting the area comprising the State were laid down, is and always will be a matter of conjecture. Suffice it to say, that according to the best knowledge obtainable, those formations were de- posited in the order and manner set forth by the writer in another paper presented to this Academy in 1903.* Prior to 1837 there is but little record of work done toward utilizing the mineral resources or determining the geology of Indiana. It is known that as early as 1804 the location of outcrops of coal was noted and marked on the land survey maps of the State, and in 1811 a small mine had been opened at Fulton, Perry County, from which it is said Robert Fulton obtained a supply of fuel for the first steamboat descending the Ohio River. In 1817, William McClure, who afterward came to New Harmony with Robert Dale Owen, published a work "Observations on the Geology of the United States of America, etc." in which was a colored geological map of the Eastern United States. This shows Indiana in one color, the entire area of the State being included under what he called the "secondary" or area of stratified rocks. Indiana is not mentioned in the text of this work.

It is bordered by the Mississippi River to the east. The area experiences a temperate climate with both warm and cold season extremes. Winter months can bring occasional heavy snows, intermittent freezing precipitation or ice, and prolonged periods of cloudiness. While true blizzards are rare, winter storms impact the area on average about 3 to 4 times per season. Occasional arctic outbreaks bring extreme cold and dangerous wind chills. Temperatures between river valleys and surrounding ridges can vary greatly. Typically high temperatures on ridges are 3° to 5°F colder than valleys. This can lead to slightly more average snowfall on ridge tops and occasionally a difference in winter precipitation types from ridge to valley. Thunderstorms occur on average 30 to 50 times a year, mainly in the spring and summer months. The strongest storms can produce associated severe weather like tornadoes, large hail, or damaging wind.
