Another storm again - starting tonight

[edit]

Hi there - there is another winter storm for California starting tonight, Sunday, Feb 25. This will likely make national news and possibly merit a second article, or we should rename this one to represent both storms.

Please advise - given that we will now have two winter storms in North America this month. Thanks! Missvain (talk) 01:38, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Missvain, thanks for bringing this up! I was watching that one as well and IMO, I believe we might need to rename this article to represent both storms. Tails Wx 12:16, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think that's a great idea. Missvain (talk) 01:41, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sure is! I might need some assistance from other editors, so tomorrow will most likely rename it. Thanks! Tails Wx 03:06, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Are we sure these should be considered separate systems. The WPC appears to be treating them as a singular winter storm. If so, we will need to join this article and February 2023 Southern Plains derecho. wxtrackercody (talk · contributions) 21:25, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Both of them together? I do sense that these two systems may be connected together, but the TWC lists separate names for them, like Olive and Piper. But really those are unofficial and I guess it is singular. So, join Olive and Piper together? Tails Wx 21:29, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I talked to a WPC forecaster who agrees they were part of a singular system, so we'll need to combine the contents of these two articles. This also creates a headache for the name, since the California event was covered extensively just as the derecho. wxtrackercody (talk · contributions) 23:19, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hm. Is this OR? Just to clarify. Tails Wx 23:42, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm just offering confirmation of what's already conveyed by the source I provided above--they're treating it as a singular system. wxtrackercody (talk · contributions) 23:53, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok! So it's the winter storm and the tornado outbreak combined, right? Anyway, what name should we rename it to? February 2023 North American storm complex? Any ideas? Tails Wx 00:32, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also, BTW, it's going to be some hard work combining it, but we've got this! Tails Wx 13:20, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Needs to be that. ChessEric (talk · contribs) 17:32, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
