An Alberta Clipper is a type of fast-moving midlatitude cyclone that forms in western Canada and sweeps across the Great Plains and Midwest of the United States. These storms typically bring cold temperatures and light snowfall, but can also produce strong winds and heavy snow in some cases. Panhandle Hooks also form in western Canada, but they typically move more slowly and follow a more southerly path, affecting the southern and central Plains. Nor'easters typically form along the East Coast and can produce heavy precipitation and strong winds. The Siberian Express refers to a pattern of very cold air from Siberia that can affect parts of the United States, but is not associated with a specific storm system.
