Valley Floods Follow Pattern

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14—Winter floods in the Ohio valley, annual dangers that sometimes build up into disasters, always follow the same general pattern in antecedent weather setups, meteorologists of the U. 8. weather bureau here state. A warm, moist mass of air moves up from over the Gulf of Mexico, strikes a cold air mass somewhere over - the upper Ohio region, and gets the water wrung out of it onto steep-sided hills that pour-it down into the tributary streams in heir V-shaped valleys like so-many roofs with brimming gu If there happens to be snow on the ground, that gets washed down, too, and adds to the ‘en-~ gorged rivers’ burden. The flood may be onily:a fiash ~ the rainstorm. engendered by the clash of warm southern and cold northern air masses over the Monongahela and Allegheny watersheds is a rapidly miving one, If the situation stagthe clouds may hang for days, persistently pouring ‘their contents. Then the situation may become very bad, like - the flood that drowned out Pitts Vourgh in 1936 snd the even greater one thai was a \najor disaster along the middls and lower Ohio course in oo
