Groundhog Day gale of 1976 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Groundhog Day gale of 1976
The Groundhog Day gale was a severe winter storm that hit the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada on February 2 (Groundhog Day), 1976. ==Meteorologist synopsis== An Upper-level low was stationary across the Desert Southwest of the United States, on January 28.〔National Weather Service. (Daily Weather Maps: January 26 February 1, 1976. ) Retrieved on 2006-11-28.〕 A system in the northern branch of the Westerlies known as a Saskatchewan Screamer, similar to an Alberta clipper but originating as a frontal wave in the next Canadian province to the east, moved east-southeast across Canada beginning on January 30, luring the system in the United States eastward. The cyclones merged by February 2, becoming a significant storm over New England before lifting northward through Quebec into the Davis Strait. At this time, maximum sustained winds reached 164 kilometers per hour (102 mph) in coastal areas (equal to a Category 2 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale), with wind gusts of up to 188 kilometers per hour (116 mph). By February 6, this extratropical cyclone was absorbed by another system in the northern Canadian archipelago.〔National Weather Service. (Daily Weather Maps: February 2-8, 1976. ) Retrieved on 2006-11-28.〕
