Approximately 10 years ago, convection‐permitting regional climate models (CPRCMs)
emerged as a promising computationally affordable tool to produce fine resolution (1–4 km) …

A natural hazard is a naturally occurring extreme event that has a negative effect on people
and society or the environment. Natural hazards may have severe implications for human …

Northern European countries such as Finland are highly sensitive to variability and changes
in snowfall and snow cover. Intense snowfall may cause severe problems for traffic and …

The goal of this work is to investigate and explain recent changes in total and maximum
yearly snowfall from daily data in light of current global warming or the interdecadal …

A climatological analysis and overlying synoptic conditions of Black Sea-effect snowfall
events were investigated for Istanbul, Turkey, during the 1971–2006 winter (DJF) periods …

Convective sea-effect snowfall, in the form of snowbands, is observed over the northern
Baltic Sea annually. Quasi-stationary snowbands may last up to several days over the sea …

Extreme precipitation events (EPEs) have a major impact across Arctic Fennoscandia (AF).
Here we examine the spatial variability of seasonal 50-year trends in three EPEs across AF …

Heavy snowfall events of possible sea‐effect origin, occurring on the southern Baltic Sea
coast, are described in this study. The analysed region is not very snowy, with an average of …

A sea-effect snowfall accumulated a national record-breaking snowdrift of 73 cm in
Merikarvia, on the west coast of Finland, in less than one day on 8 January 2016. A good …

The formation of convective sea-effect snowfall (ie, snow bands) is triggered by cold air
outbreaks over a relatively warm and open sea. Snow bands can produce intense snowfall …
