Trivia

weather

What’s the difference between a winter advisory, watch, and warning.

WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY will be issued for any amount of freezing rain, or when 2 to 4 inches of snow (alone or in combination with sleet and freezing rain), is expected to cause a significant inconvenience, but not serious enough to warrant a warning.

WINTER STORM WATCH A Winter Storm Watch is issued when there is the potential for significant and hazardous winter weather within 48 hours. It does not mean that significant and hazardous winter weather will occur…it only means it is possible.

WINTER STORM WARNING A Winter Storm Warning is issued when a significant combination of hazardous winter weather is occurring or imminent. Significant and hazardous winter weather is defined as a combination of: 1) 5 inches or more of snow/sleet within a 12-hour period or 7 inches or more of snow/sleet within a 24-hour period AND/OR ; 2) Enough ice accumulation to cause damage to trees or powerlines. AND/OR;  3) a life-threatening or damaging combination of snow and/or ice accumulation with wind.
