The Marks-Nielson Fire began in the early morning hours of the 11th of January and continued to burn until February 14th. The fire was spread through 3 acres of woodchips and other debris piled over 20-feet high in spots.  It began by spontaneous combustion and caused a health problem due to its soot for much of the Fresno metropolitan area. With a number of agencies involved along with the Federal EPA intervention, the cost of putting the fire out is estimated to be over $2.5M.

The Evansville Tri-State area received the brunt of a winter storm that began during the evening of February 15th and lasted about 24 hours. The precipitation was mainly in the form of sleet. Several inches of sleet, mixed with freezing rain and snow, resulted in major travel disruptions. Multi-vehicle pileups and highway closures were reported in Evansville near the beginning of the winter storm. A thick layer of ice caused by the compacted sleet and freezing rain mixture made travel difficult at best. The storm occurred on the Presidents Day weekend. Most schools and businesses scheduled to be open on Presidents Day were closed. The weight of the sleet caused docks at an Evansville marina to start sinking. Three covered boat houses, each holding 40 to 45 boats, were threatened. Some specific reports included: 4.3 inches at Evansville (with a liquid equivalent of 1.52 inches), 4 inches at Fort Branch in Gibson County, and 3 inches at Grandview in Spencer County.

High Wind in SERN P.W. SND, ALASKA

Magnitude: 65 EG
Reported by: AWOS,ASOS,MESONET,ETC

Strong northerly winds out of the Copper River drainage likely reached 75+ mph as cold air moved south into the Gulf of Alaska.  Blowing dust from the river reached southward past Middleton Island.  No direct observations are available from this known area of strong winds.
Blizzard in ALASKA PENINSULA, ALASKA
From 13-MAR-03 17:00:00 to 13-MAR-03 22:45:00 (AST)
Reported by: AWOS,ASOS,MESONET,ETC

Blizzard conditions were observed around Cold Bay Thursday evening.  North winds reached 54 mph...and visibilities were frequently below 1/4 mile in blowing snow.
A "Bora" type windstorm hit much of the Matanuska Valley, Anchorage and portions of the Kenai Peninsula.Very cold air funneled down the Matanuska Valley, driven by a large high centered over the Chukotsk Peninsula.  A combination of strong convergence aloft, a tight surface pressure gradient, and terrain forcing brought hurricane-force winds to the ground over a large portion of greater Anchorage. Damage reports were numerous and included small planes, roofs torn off buildings, car ports caving in and siding blown off.  Power outages of 9 hours or more were reported.  Communications were also impacted. Lots of broken signs, traffic lights rendered inoperable, partial roof collapses, lost roofing shingles and garbage cans scattered all over west Anchorage and the Palmer area.When the 109 mph gust hit the Ted Steven's International Anchorage airport at 10:42 pm, the tower was abandoned and the airport closed to incoming traffic.  Just prior to that, an Alaska Airlines flight received clearance to land with winds "three five zero at eight zero knots (92 mph)".  Flights right behind it decided to go to Fairbanks and Juneau!  In all, around 15 flights were diverted to Fairbanks, which became a parking lot for 747s Thursday.Winds gusting close to 60 mph whipped across the western Kenai Peninsula also, creating 'red flag' conditions and spreading small fires into significant ones across the dry ground.  Largest reported fire reached 100 acres north of Anchor Point.  Scattered power outages were also reported across the area, including one larger one around Fritz Creek (on the outskirts of Homer).In the Valdez area, gusts at the airport reached an estimated 100+ mph, ripping roofs off several structures and breaking glass in buildings and cars.  Overall, at least 14 vehicles around the Valdez airport were damaged.In addition, temperatures around zero combined with the strong winds to produce wind chills near 45 below zero.  The cold air, driven into buildings by the strong winds, also froze many water pipes...which then burst, adding to the damage estimates.

The axis of heaviest snow fell from Benkelman, NE southeast through McDonald, KS to Grainfield and Quinter, KS.  Blowing and drifting snow reduced visibility below one-half mile at times.  A broad area of 2 to 5 inches of snow covered much of the remainder of northwest Kansas.

Flood in LAWRENCE, INDIANA
From 04-JAN-03 21:00:00 to 06-JAN-03 08:00:00 (EST)
Reported by: AWOS,ASOS,MESONET,ETC

The East Fork White River crested at 20.75 feet, flooding agricultural lands and closing some roads in the flood plain. The flood stage is 20 feet.
A strong Arctic High centered over the central Brooks Range helped to produce clear skies for several days.  As a result, surface temperatures across northern Alaska continued to drop to well below zero.  As a weak trough of low pressure over the northern Bering Strait moved slowly eastward toward the Baldwin Peninsula and Selawik Valley, a pressure gradient sufficent enough to cause winds of 20 to 35 mph developed.  This, combined with the already fridgid temperatures, created wind chills as low as 65 below zero at Kotzebue and Selawik.

Cold/Wind Chill in BALDWIN PEN. & SELAWIK VALLEY, ALASKA
From 07-JAN-03 14:10:00 to 08-JAN-03 03:15:00 (AST)
Reported by: AWOS,ASOS,MESONET,ETC
Ice Jam Flooding occurred in the Salcha Area along Piledriver Slough. High water made approximately 30 residences inaccessible and closed portions of the Old Richardson Highway, with over 2 feet of water crossing a section of that road on the afternoon of the 4th.  The exact cause of the flooding is uncertain, but an unusually warm October and November delayed the freeze-up of the Tanana River.  Late in December an ice jam probably formed on the main channel of the Tanana River, thus causing water to back up into Piledriver Slough off the Tanana River. Surface and ground water levels rose during the final days of 2002 and through January 2nd; but by January 3rd, overland flow had surrounded residences as noted above. During the event at least one home experienced water in the basement.

Radio Station W4MAZ in Macon relayed a report from the public of penny to quarter-sized hail on Georgia Highway 224 near the Macon/Bibb county line.
High winds persisted for over 48 hours as a building high of 1059mb over western Canada and a 978mb low  pressure system over the eastern Gulf of Alaska approached one another.  Between these two systems a very narrow, tight pressure gradient  developed creating a low level jet stream of strong winds across the Tanana Flats and through the mountain passes near Delta Junction.   A peak wind speed of 64 mph was recorded at the Delta Junction ASOS site, with numerous other observations in excess of 50 mph recorded over a two day period.

A strong and fast moving cold front raced across the northern plains during the late afternoon and evening hours. Very little snow fell as the cold front passed, however, two to five inches of fresh snowcover was present across the area from a storm that moved through a few days earlier. Also, behind this cold front strong northwest winds of 25 to 40 mph, with gusts to over 50 mph were common. The strong winds combined with the snow cover to produce blowing and drifting snow. The blowing snow led to white-out and ground blizzard conditions at times. Visibilities were reduced to near zero at times with several automobile accidents across the area during the late afternoon and evening hours. The strong winds also produced wind chill values as low as 15 degrees below zero.

The differential pressure between the ridge to the south, and trough to the north of the mountain range were sufficient enough to produce high winds.

A cold front with heavy snow moved through central New York early on the 20th.  Behind the front, arctic air set off lake effect snow.  These bands, also with heavy snow, set up soon after the front went through.  Snowfall amounts were 6 to 10 inches.  Snowfall rates were 1 to 2 inches an hour.  Strong winds sustained over 20 mph with gusts over 30 mph created drifting and blowing snow.  White-out conditions caused many multiple vehicle accidents.  No serious accidents were reported in northern Oneida County.  In the rest of Oneida County many accidents occurred.  One man died the morning of the 20th in Bridgewater when a tractor trailer slid out of his lane on Route 8.  The New York State Thruway was closed in both directions for most of the afternoon.
