Abstract
In the significant part of the territory of Russia and other northern countries, the snowstorm is a frequently observed hazardous meteorological phenomenon. The significant duration of the cold period and the presence of vast snow areas as well as synoptic and orographic factors that cause the formation of strong winds, create the conditions for the snowstorm activity in the most part of Russia. In the present paper, an algorithm is proposed of the snowstorm forecast (separately for overall and ground snowstorms) for Murmansk region and Central Federal District based on the data of WRF-ARW modern hydrodynamic regional model used in the operational practice in the Hydrometcenter of Russia.
