Yazi Iingqungquthela zeSiqhwa Ngaphambi kokuya kwiSkinga
I-Salt Lake City yindawo ekhephukileyo: Ithola umyinge we-62.7 intshi yekhefu kwixesha lekhephu. Imvula enkulu yekhephu ebhalwe ngexesha elilodwa yayingu-117.3 intshi ngo-1951-52, kwaye ubuncinci bekuyi-16,6 intshi ngo-1933-34. Ngokwesiqhelo, iqhwa liqala ukuwa eSinter Lake City ngoNovemba 6, kwaye umhla wokugqibela wekhefu lokugqibela ungo-Apreli 18.
Eyokuqala kunye neNtsholongwane yokugqibela kunye neeNtsuku zokugqibela
Umhla wokuqala wekhephu wawela eSalt Lake City kwakuyiSept.
17 (1965); Ukuqala kokuqala kwakungu-Oktobha 22 (1995), umahluko wenyanga enye.
Kukho uluhlu oluncinane lweeveki ezintathu ukuqala kwexesha lekhephu lokuqala, ukuqala kwangoko kwiKrisimesi Usuku (1943), kunye neyesithandathu kwangoko kuqale ngoDisemba 4 (1976).
Uluhlu lweziphelo zexesha lekhephu (elithetha umhla wokugqibela ngaloo nyaka kwiqhwa lawa) livela ngoMeyi 8 (1930) ukuya kuMeyi 24 (2010), uluhlu lweeveki ezimbini.
Ukubikezela ngeemeko zeMozulu zexesha elizayo
Ukwazi iindawo zokuqala kweqhwa kuqala kunye nokuphela kweSixeko saseSalt Lake - okanye nayiphi na indawo yesiphakamiso-kuncedo ekucwangciseni uhambo. Idatha ibonisa, umzekelo, ukuba ukucwangcisa i- Salt Lake City indawo yekhefu ngo-Disemba ngaphambi kokuba iqhwa liqalise ukuwa liba yingozi.
Nangona kunjalo, kukho iindawo zangaphandle kunye nakwixesha elide ukungafani kweliphi iqela elitholakala ngokwenene kwi-skiing. Ezi zimbini ziza kuqala kwixesha lekhephu zenzeke ngomhla weKrisimesi, enye ngo-1943, enye ngo-1939.
Kodwa ixesha lonyaka we-1939 laqala nge-intshi enye yeqhwa. Ngoko ke, umhla wokuqala ngo-1939 awunanto engabalulekanga kubadlali bezulu. Ngowe-1943, ngakolunye uhlangothi, Usuku lweKrisimesi lwalufika eSald Lake kunye neengqimba ezili-6 zekhephu.
Elinye iqela elide elibikezela imozulu, i-Farmers Almanac, liye lanikezela ukubikezelwa kwexesha elide malunga neepesenti ezimbini kwaye ngoku ivakalisa ukuchaneka kwama-80 ekhulwini.
Oku kuphikisana ngabaphathi beemeteorologist abanamakhono afana noJan Null weSango leMidlalo yaseGold Golden Gate, ophengulule ibango kwaye waphetha ukuba umlinganiselo wangempela wawungama-25 ukuya kuma-30 echanekileyo. Ukuyibeka ngenye indlela, ngokutsho kweNull le nkonzo yokubikezela ixesha elide iphosakeleyo ngaphezu kweyesibini kwiyesithathu. Akukho ngokwenene isicwangciso seeholide.
Nangona i-Almanac ye-Farmer's refusal to reveal the way it arrives in its forecasts yenze ingcamango yeengcali zemozulu, ingeyona ingxaki ekhoyo kwi-Almanac yeFama. Umbono kaNull kukuba ukunyaniseka kwanoma yiyiphi iimeko zokubonelela ngeenkonzo zemozulu, kubandakanywa izibikezelo zee-arhente zaseburhulumenteni zase-United States, zixhamla ngaphaya kweentsuku ezisixhenxe.
Ukuthabatha apha kukuba yinto efanelekileyo ukujonga ukuba yintoni imvula yekhefu elidlulileyo eliye lahlala kuyo nayiphi na indawo ye-skiing kwaye yongeza ubuncinane iiveki ukuya kwiimpawu zokuqala zamanani kunye nokukhupha inani elifanayo okanye ngaphezulu ukusuka kwixesha langoku- ukuphela kwemifanekiso yekhephu.
Ubushushu bukazwe lonke
Olunye uguquko kwiimeko zokubikezela isimo sezulu ezenza ukuba ucwangciso luhambe ngokukodwa ukufudumala kwehlabathi. Kunelungelo lokuthi i-NASA kunye ne-National Oceanic kunye ne-Atmospheric Administration ihlalutya iphetha ngokuthi u-2016 wawungumnyaka oshisa kakhulu kuba ukugcinwa kwerekhodi kwaqala ngo-1880.
Indlela oku kuya kuthinta ngayo indawo ye-skiing ingaziwa, kodwa ibangele i-Salt Lake Tribune kunye neFox's Salt Lake ithelevishini yokubambisana ukuba icandelo le-skiing e-Utah lizakuphela ekupheleni kwekhulu. Oku kunokwenzeka okanye kungeke kwenzeke, kodwa kukho ukubonisa ukuba ukuhamba ngokucwangcisa nokucwangcisa ukuhamba kwiindawo zokudumala kweMelika kuya kunciphisa amathuba akho okukhupha iholide.
