Images of a wild yet mild winter in the United States
The spring equinox arrives Sunday, marking an end to a winter of volatile, high-impact weather. The dramatic extremes of the season are well-represented by a collection of images that meteorologists use to understand the atmosphere. This article highlights some of these noteworthy, unforgettable weather visuals of this past meteorological winter.December 2021 was one of the warmest wintertime months ever observed in the United States.
An unusual lack of early-winter snow combined with persistent drought conditions in portions of Colorado, contributing to regional susceptibility to wildfires — typically a summertime threat — at the beginning of winter. On Dec. 30, as an impressive windstorm swept across the Rocky Mountains, a violent grass fire rapidly engulfed suburbs northwest of Denver to become the most destructive inferno in Colorado history.
Optimism generated by a very wet December was quickly dashed by two of the driest winter months in California history. An expansive zone of mid-atmospheric high pressure prohibited even light showers from reaching much of the West for the entirety of January and February, typically the region’s two wettest months.
