Blowing/Drifting Snow Advisory
Statement as of 4:06 AM EST on January 20, 2007
Blowing Snow Advisory remains in effect until 7 PM EST this
evening...
Northwest
winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 35 mph will
result in considerable blowing and drifting snow with some
whiteout conditions at times in open areas.
A blowing Snow Advisory is issued when a strong and gusty wind
will combine with falling snow and/or snow on the ground to
produce blowing and drifting. Snow will likely blow over
roadways... partially covering or further blanketing the pavement.
Also... blowing snow will lower visibilities with near whiteout
conditions at times. Snow drifts will likely form near
structures such as homes... cars... or trees... and could become
significantly deeper than in areas exposed to the wind and away
from structures.
