Many States in the southern United States will face extreme weather such as snowstorms and freezing rain on weekends. What kind of extreme weather plagues the United States?

The United States suffers from extreme weather such as tornadoes, blizzards and heavy rainfall.

The United States is one of the countries with frequent meteorological disasters, especially tornadoes. Because of the low altitude, there are no obvious east-west mountains, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. In spring and summer, a large number of warm and humid air currents often penetrate into the midwest of the United States, leading to the continuous formation and development of convective clouds and even tornadoes. This is why tornadoes are frequent and intense in the United States. In addition, there are many heavy snow, heavy rain and tropical cyclones in the United States. Historically, some tropical cyclones have invaded the United States, causing serious casualties.

The recent winter storm will hit the Rocky Mountains on June 5438+03, and its snowfall will affect cities from Wyoming to New Mexico. In Cheyenne, Wyoming, colorado springs, Colorado, Santa Fe, New Mexico and Albuquerque, the total snowfall may reach about 5 to 7.6 centimeters. And with the increase of altitude, there may be thicker snow. In the second half of the weekend, there will be snowstorms in Texas and Oklahoma, and there may be a foot of snow in Lubbock and Oklahoma City.

Tulsa, Oklahoma and Fayetteville, Arkansas will experience two snowstorms in the next five days, which will increase the probability of snowfall between the two cities and bring extremely cold weather. According to the weather forecast, the snowstorm in Texas will bring 10 to 17.8 cm of snowfall to Dallas-Fort Worth, and will also lead to large-scale power outages and tree dumping in Texas.

Due to extreme weather and power failure in many places, the people of Texas are in a serious crisis of survival. The original temperature has dropped sharply, and people's demand for heating facilities has greatly increased. At MINUS 20 degrees Celsius, people's life is very difficult, but now there is no electricity supply, and people can't keep warm. Many residents were very angry and asked the power supplier to restore power supply. However, the power supplier is also very excited, saying that it is already trying to supply power to some areas, but it cannot supply power all at once. Power supply by turns is the best solution now. If some users are not satisfied, they can find other operators. The contradiction between the two sides is very fierce, and a big war has begun between Texas power users and operators.

In addition to the snowstorm, it is expected that the first round of freezing rain will pass through northeastern Texas from the night of 13 to the night of 14, and enter southern Arkansas and northwestern Louisiana. It is expected that freezing rain will cause roads to freeze and bring travel risks. According to the forecast of the meteorological department, from the evening of 14 to 15, Texas cities such as San Antonio, Austin and Houston and Shreveport, Louisiana will face road icing caused by freezing rain before 15.

Arctic air mass is sweeping across the United States, not only bringing large-scale cooling and blizzard, but also spreading cold air to the United States. It is estimated that more than10.50 billion people in 26 states in the United States will be affected by this cooling. A more terrible danger crept in. The most terrible thing for Americans is not power failure or low temperature, but the current epidemic.
