The Climate alarmists are not going to like all the snow Larry dumps on Greenland.
HURRICANE Larry is set to transition into a “massive blizzard” as it approaches Newfoundland. This setup is highly unusual for the time of the year, with the storm expected to dump as much as five feet of global warming goodness on Greenland.
It’s not unprecedented for a hurricane to move into cold-enough air to produce snow — it even has a name: “snowicane”.
However, although not unheard of, it has only happened a handful of times in recorded history…
NEW ENGLAND HURRICANE OF 1804 In 1804, the New England Hurricane was the first tropical cyclone in recorded history known to produce snowfall.
According to reports, snow totals up to 48 inches were measured in parts of Vermont.
HURRICANE SANDY OF 2012 Hurricane Sandy is perhaps the most infamous hurricane turned “snowicane”.
The storm developed in late October of 2012 and affected 24 U.S. states, including the entire eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine and west across the Appalachian Mountains and as far west as Michigan and Wisconsin!
According to the Washington Post, Sandy dumped two-to-three feet of snow in the central Appalachian Mountains, collapsing roofs and taking down trees and power lines.
HURRICANE ZETA OF 2020 Less than a year ago, Hurricane Zeta produced snow in October.
Several inches were reported from New Jersey to Massachusetts.
AND NOW… HURRICANE LARRY OF 2021
So while not unheard of, it is still incredibly rare for a hurricane to produce snow–particularly in early–September!
And while Larry will just miss out on producing “snowicane” conditions in the United States, after tracking northeast across the Atlantic Ocean, it does look set to dump historic volumes of summer snow along coastal Greenland:
