一场冬季风暴使明尼苏达东南部降雪变幻莫测,一些地区的降雪面积超过12英寸,而附近地区由于风暴轨迹变化和微气候,降雪的幅度要小得多。
A winter storm brought highly variable snowfall in southeast Minnesota, with some areas getting over 12 inches while nearby regions saw much less due to shifting storm tracks and microclimates.
明尼苏达东南部最近发生的一次冬季风暴产生了前后不一致的降雪报告,有些地区记录的降雪面积超过12英寸,而附近地点的降雪面积不足一半。
A recent winter storm in southeast Minnesota produced inconsistent snowfall reports, with some areas recording over 12 inches while nearby locations saw less than half that amount.
气象官员将这种变异归因于局部大气条件,包括微气候和风暴轨迹的移动,造成大雪带只影响某些地区。
Weather officials attribute the variation to localized atmospheric conditions, including microclimates and shifting storm tracks, which caused intense snow bands to affect only certain regions.
这些差异在居民中引起混乱,突出显示在准确预测和计量复杂地形降雪方面存在的挑战。
The discrepancies have prompted confusion among residents and highlighted challenges in accurately forecasting and measuring snowfall in complex terrain.
