Fire season hits far west nsw, wv & pittsburgh - October 2, 2013 - October 2, 2013
A week before the next snowstorm is forecast to hit, we take a look at a possible change in snowpack rates in west nsw.
Preliminary estimates of snowpack volume for September have increased by 15% since the last report, with much of that increase occurring from a dry spell, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. The increase in snowpack is expected to be accompanied by more rain this week in much of the region.
The Drought Monitor has provided forecast data for west nsw since November 24, 2012. Most recently the Drought Monitor reported that in the next 6-9 months precipitation could reach or exceed the drought standards for the area, and that in some areas this month, there could even be as much as one of the highest levels of precipitation ever recorded.
Snowpack estimates
This week's predictions suggest a higher potential for a wetter period ahead, with snowpack estimates increasing about 8-12%.
On Saturday, snow is expected to begin to fall on snowpack forecasts in northwest Wisconsin early in the evening. In most of eastern and southwestern Wisconsin, high-pressure systems will continue to blow from the north east through the week, although snow may only fall in western and southern Wisconsin. Late Friday afternoon and early Saturday, snow may come through more quickly in northwestern Wisconsin, with the snow likely to become more dispersed between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.
Saturday forecasted snowpack:
Gulf Coast:
West of Milwaukee: 5-10″ (12-16")
East of Milwaukee: 10-13″ (25-35")
West of Green Bay: 30-42″ (60-70")
Landslides forecasted for Monday morning and evening
The following are weather-related avalanche and landslide hazard warnings for areas on the southern boundary of the Wisconsin National Scenic Railroad near the Wisconsin border, where there is heavy snow for Monday through Saturday:
Frost/Snowstorm Warning for Thessalonie, OH
Thessalonie Area:
Nontasteria Area: 15-45 inches of snowfall (48-76 inches if falling in snow totals of 15-50 inches), 10-23 inch of hail.
Landslides are possible
In the Northeast, where a moderate to severe cold front could shift to a southwesterly front with heavy low pressure, a serious avalanche threat is likely, with some serious potential for minor, but potentially dangerous, damage. The high elevations in northwestern Wisconsin may see a moderate accumulation snow. The high elevations i

Public to get say on mining camps and oil wells," says C.W. Stewart, executive director of the Oklahoma Petroleum Association. "We had to fight the Oklahoma Public Service Commission on the grounds that we needed to know what kinds of mines were being built. It wasn't until after the mine closures that we got an accurate list of every site. We never had any problem with mining companies."
While it was necessary to inform the public, C.W. Stewart says the Oklahoma Public Service Commission could not have anticipated the explosion that unfolded across the Plains on October 6, 2011, which, in its totality, caused the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars of assets and millions of dollars in health and safety hazards, along with damage to public property. The loss is likely to continue into the future, he says.
"If you are at a coal mine and there's a sudden, dramatic rise in water temperature or a sudden flash or explosion, this can cause huge amounts of radioactive material to enter the environment," he adds. "There is no way the commission could have foreseen the impact on these mines before they had to go on shutdown. We spent thousands of dollars in the field monitoring, so these things happen fairly frequently. One thing we knew from the outset was to always tell people when these kinds of things happen and tell them what they need to know."
