最近安大略省中部的暴风雪引起了人们对气候变化在加剧湖效应暴风雪中的作用的关切。 Recent intense snowstorms in central Ontario have raised concerns about climate change's role in intensifying lake-effect snowstorms. 这些风暴因冰冷的北极空气和温暖的大湖区之间的反差而火上浇油,随着湖泊温度的上升,这些风暴可能会变得更加强烈和旷日持久。 These storms, fueled by the contrast between cold Arctic air and warmer Great Lakes, may become more intense and prolonged as lake temperatures rise. 温暖的冬天还可能导致冰盖减少,冬季洪水的风险增加。 Warmer winters could also lead to less ice cover and higher risks of winter flooding. 科学家建议各社区为可能更为严重的雪事件做好准备。 Scientists advise communities to prepare for potentially more severe snow events.
