A winter storm in March 2023 impacted much of the Western, Northern, and Northeastern United States, producing high snowfall totals and widespread damage across the region. The winter storm, unofficially named Winter Storm Sage by The Weather Channel, first progressed across the Western United States as an atmospheric river, and then moved across the northern United States, bringing blizzard conditions and moderate snowfall across the Northern U.S..[2] The winter storm then became a nor'easter and impacted the Northeast, bringing snowfall rates of NaNinches per hour across numerous locations across the Northeast and 3feet of snow in several locations across the region with locally higher amounts.[3] More than 320,000 power outages occurred across the areas impacted by the winter storm, and caused three fatalities and two injuries. Readsboro, Vermont received 42.1inches of snow,[4] and nearly 200 car accidents occurred across the New England region in the Northeast.

Meteorological synopsis

On March 10, a frontal system moved eastward across the western U.S. from the Pacific Northwest, with the main low pressure area associated with the system located offshore of southwestern Washington and a separate area of low-pressure east of the California/Nevada border.[5] As a result, an atmospheric river developed, bringing heavy rainfall and high snow accumulations to portions of the Western United States and Sierra Nevada. The atmospheric river then transitioned into a winter storm as it then moved across the northern United States on March 11 - 12, bringing blizzard conditions and moderate snowfall across the Northern United States, producing additional snowfall accumulations across the region. The winter storm then became a nor'easter as another low-pressure area developed off the Carolina coast and moved northward along the coastline of the Northeastern United States, bringing snowfall rates of NaNinches per hour across numerous locations across the Northeast for the next several days. The winter storm brought 3feet of snow in some locations across the Northeastern United States, with locally higher amounts. The winter storm then moved offshore on March 15, dissipating two days later.[6] [7]

Preparations

California governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency for 34 counties in the state.[8] Governor Newsom also requested an emergency declaration for the state, which was accepted by United States president Joe Biden. A rare level 4/high risk of excessive rainfall was issued by the Weather Prediction Center for portions of the state. More than 25 million people were placed under a flood watch in California, and several ski resorts closed in California in anticipation of heavy snowfall. In neighboring Nevada, governor Joe Lombardo issued a state of emergency for three counties in the state, which was later expanded to eight more counties.[9]

On March 13, New York governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency and a travel ban for several counties in New York.[10] The Metropolitan Transit Authority of New York City shut down walkways on the Cross Bay Bridge and Marine Parkway–Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge, and monitored to see if other bridges, subways or buses needed to be shut down.[11]

Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont banned all tractor-trailers on Interstate 84 in the early morning hours on March 14 in preparation for the storm.[12] [13] Maine Governor Janet Mills ordered all government offices to close.[14]

Prior to the winter storm, Jon Palmer of the National Weather Service office in Gray, Maine, stated that the precipitation may cause significant power disruptions that last for over 48 hours.[15] Cornell University shut down on March 14 in preparation for the snow.[16] The National Weather Service issued winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories from Pennsylvania to Maine.[17]

Impact

Western United States

The strong atmospheric river that developed into the winter storm impacted California on March 10, producing heavy rainfall which caused flooding across lower elevations of the state, and heavy snowfall which brought high snowfall totals across the Sierra Nevada mountains. A road leading to the town of Soquel collapsed due to flooding after a pipe failure, and widespread flooding and strong winds led to separated roads, collapsed bridges, and downed trees in Tulare County while a rare flash flood emergency was in effect there.[18] The San Lorenzo River crested, which prompted evacuation orders for Soquel Village, Paradise Park, and Felton Grove as several other rivers also crested to above flood levels.[19] Nearly 60 people were evacuated from a RV park near Sanger,[20] and several people and animals were also rescued across San Luis Obispo County. Twenty-five "weather-related incidents", including several water rescues, occurred across the city of Fresno. Across the state, widespread amounts of NaNinches of rain fell, with locally higher amounts of up to nearly 13inches of rainfall in King City.[21] [22] A levee was breached due to a swollen Pajaro River, which flooded Pajaro entirely, with the California Army National Guard rescuing more than 200 people there. An evacuation order was also given for portions of Cambria due to flooding.[23] Several homes were flooded after the Tule River overflowed its banks, and to prevent flooding, the Folsom Dam released 30000cuft of water every second in Sacramento County. Portions of California State Route 1 and California State Route 12 were closed, and several people evacuated in Watsonville after flooding ensued across portions of the city.[24] Heavy rainfall closed several public parks, including Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park.[25] California State Route 84 between Portola Road and Skyline Boulevard was closed indefinitely due to damage from a landslide,[26] resulting in the road buckling and leaving behind large cracks.[27] Nearly 9,400 people were placed under evacuation orders. Across the state, 55,000 power outages occurred, and one person was killed and one person was injured after a portion of the roof of a warehouse collapsed.[28] The heavy snowfall across the Sierra Nevada mountain range led to collapsed roofs across South Lake Tahoe.[29] In California, damages from the atmospheric river amounted to more than $3 million.[30]

In neighboring Nevada, a portion of U.S. Route 95 was shut down between Schurz and Hawthorne.[31] The town of Mount Charleston received 1.38inches of rain, and the visitor center at the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area recorded a 52mph wind gust. In Nevada, flood and winter weather impacts resulted in more than $12 million in property damages.[32]

Northern United States

North Dakota

On March 11, blizzard conditions occurred across portions of the state, which forced closures on Interstate 94 between Jamestown and Dickinson, as well as on U.S. Route 52.[33] [34] Near Park River, 14inches of snow fell, and nearly 6inches of snowfall accumulated in Bismarck.[35] [36] Several vehicles were stuck on portions of North Dakota Highway 36, and a no travel advisory around the Grand Forks area.[37] Travel was also significantly impacted on Interstate 94 west of Fargo, Interstate 29 between Fargo and Grand Forks, and U.S. Route 2. In McKenzie County, there were $200,000 in property damages, and one person was killed after his vehicle crashed into a semi-trailer truck; the driver of the semi-trailer was also injured.[38]

Minnesota and Wisconsin

In Minnesota, high snowfall totals were observed across northern portions of the state, with a weather station recording 18.5inches west of Two Harbors.[39] [40] Blizzard conditions also occurred in Detroit Lakes. A mall in Duluth had its roof collapse due to the weight of the snow.[41]

In Wisconsin, the highest snowfall totals were recorded mainly across northern and eastern portions of the state, with 22inches of snowfall near Cornucopia and Sheboygan receiving 13.2inches of snow.[42] [43] Due to the high snow accumulations, several schools were closed or delayed opening hours across the state.

Northeastern United States

During the storm, 284,000 customers lost power across the Northeast,[44] and low visibility led to over 200 car crashes in New England.[45]

New England

High snow accumulations occurred across mainly southern portions of Vermont, with Readsboro receiving 42.1inches of snow and Landgrove recording 40inches of snowfall.[46] Several car accidents occurred across the state.[47] Nearly 30,000 power outages occurred across Vermont, including nearly 25 percent of Brattleboro, where more than 30 roads were closed.

In New Hampshire, snow and ice resulted in the Piscataqua River Bridge being shut down for around an hour, and Interstate 93 was shut down temporarily due to downed power lines caused by the winter storm.[48] A sportsdome in Goffstown deflated after 16inches of snow fell there.[49] Whiteout conditions occurred on portions of New Hampshire Route 101, and more than 120 vehicle accidents occurred. Nearly 70 towns postponed elections, and one girl was injured after a tree fell on her in Derry. More than 73,000 power outages occurred across the state, and a 66mph wind gust was recorded at Mount Washington Observatory.[50]

Several locations in eastern Massachusetts experienced wind gusts of over 50mph, with Rockport recording the highest wind gust in the state, at 63mph. Downed trees and power lines occurred across the state, including in Pittsfield.[51] Several cows were killed after a barn collapsed after high snowfall accumulations in Dracut.[52] In Colrain, 36inches of snow fell, and in Peterboro, 35inches of snow fell.[53] More than 50,000 power outages occurred across Massachusetts. As a result of the winter storm, a state of emergency was declared for several jurisdictions across the state.[54] The winter storm was the most impactful in the state of the 2022–23 North American winter.[55]

More than 15,000 power outages occurred in Maine, and an additional 13,000 outages occurred in Connecticut. Bradley International Airport closed and cancelled 40% of their flights for that day.[56]

New York

A Delta plane skidded off the runway at Syracuse Hancock Airport.[57] Near Palenville, 36inches of snow fell, and Stony Creek and Moriah received the same amount. Over 100,000 people in the Albany, New York metropolitan area lost power.[58] Farther south, the nor'easter forced a ground stop at LaGuardia Airport.[59] Portions of Long Island received up to 2.2inches of snowfall.[60] Very little snow fell in New York City, with Central Park receiving only a trace of snow, and LaGuardia and Kennedy Airport receiving just 0.1inches of snow. Wind gusts reached as high as 50mph in Midtown Manhattan.[61] However, very heavy snow fell in the Hudson Valley, with the Mount Carmel District recording 17inches of snow and with over 6inches of snow falling in portions of Westchester. More than 73,000 power outages occurred across the state, which led to more than 8,000 utility crews deployed to assist with power restoration.

Elsewhere

Heavy rain fell throughout the New York metropolitan area, accumulating up to 4.12inches of rainfall in Higganum, Connecticut.[62] While portions of New Jersey received over 8inches of snow,[63] very little snow fell close to the coast in lower elevations, with Newark, New Jersey recording 0.4inches of snow.
