Pacific typhoon set to trigger snow, flooding across western U.S. as multiple storms converge
10/10/2025 / By Cassie B.
Typhoon Halong’s remnants are set to disrupt weather patterns across the western United States after narrowly missing Japan.
Its energy will be absorbed by the jet stream, potentially generating hurricane-force winds in Alaska and pushing cold air into the West Coast.
This could trigger significant snow in the Sierra Nevada and heavy rainfall in the Bay Area by early next week.
The situation is complicated by former Hurricane Priscilla, which threatens the Southwest with flash flooding and heavy rain.
The coming days will test the West’s readiness for these converging and extreme weather events.
A massive weather phenomenon unfolding across the Pacific Ocean is expected to significantly impact the western United States in the coming days.
