About: March 1–3, 2018 nor'easter

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The March 1–3, 2018 nor'easter caused major impacts as well as significant coastal flooding in the Northeastern, Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States. It originated as the northernmost low of a stationary front over the Midwest on March 1, which moved eastward into the Northeast later that night. A new low pressure system rapidly formed off the coast on March 2 as it slowly meandered near the coastline. It peaked later that day and brought hurricane-force winds to coastal New England before gradually moving out to sea by March 3. Producing over 2 feet (24 in) of snow in some areas, it was one of the most significant March snowstorms in many areas, particularly in Upstate New York. In other areas, it challenged storm surge records set by other significant storms, such as Hurricane Sa

  • The March 1–3, 2018 nor'easter caused major impacts as well as significant coastal flooding in the Northeastern, Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States. It originated as the northernmost low of a stationary front over the Midwest on March 1, which moved eastward into the Northeast later that night. A new low pressure system rapidly formed off the coast on March 2 as it slowly meandered near the coastline. It peaked later that day and brought hurricane-force winds to coastal New England before gradually moving out to sea by March 3. Producing over 2 feet (24 in) of snow in some areas, it was one of the most significant March snowstorms in many areas, particularly in Upstate New York. In other areas, it challenged storm surge records set by other significant storms, such as Hurricane Sandy. It was unofficially named Winter Storm Riley by The Weather Channel. Although the most severe damage was caused by flooding as well as snow, unusually high tides and storm surges along the coast, wind and downed trees caused massive inland power outages, with the number of outages as high as 1.9 million at one point. By March 4, least 9 people were known to have been killed as a result of the storm, with 5 of them being killed by falling trees or branches. Recovery efforts were later hampered as a second nor'easter began to impact the area just a few days after the first one struck. (en)
  • La bombe météo de début mars 2018 en Amérique du Nord, appelée tempête Riley par The Weather Channel ou nor'easter de mars 2018 par les anglo-américains, a été une grosse tempête synoptique qui frappa significativement le nord-est des États-Unis, la région Mid-Atlantic et le sud-est des États-Unis. Le système se forma le long d'un front stationnaire associé à une dépression située sur le Midwest le 1er mars et qui se déplaça vers le nord-est plus tard dans la nuit. Une nouvelle dépression se forma au large des côtes le 2 mars et icelle se déplaça lentement près de la côte atlantique. Elle atteignit son acmé plus tard dans la journée, puis commença à s'éloigner des côtes. La tempête laissa plus de 50 cm de neige à certains endroits, une des plus marquantes tempêtes de neige en certains endroits, en particulier dans l’Upstate New York (l'État de New York excluant la région de New York). En d'autres endroits, les inondations furent proches des records précédents, en particulier ceux découlant de l'Ouragan Sandy. Les dégâts les plus importants furent provoqués par les inondations et la neige ; les inondations étaient associées à des marées exceptionnellement hautes arrivant en même temps que l’onde de tempête le long de la côte. Les vents soutenus et les arbres renversés furent aussi à l'origine de nombreuses coupure de courant,qui touchèrent 1,6 million de personnes à son paroxysme.En date du 2 mars, 7 décès étaient attribués à la tempête, dont 5 résultant de la chute de branches ou d'arbres entiers, mais au 4 mars le total fut révisé à 9.
