The Columbus Day Storm of 1962 (also known as the Big Blow, and originally, and in Canada as Typhoon Freda) was a Pacific Northwest windstorm that struck the West Coast of Canada and the Pacific Northwest coast of the United States on October 12, 1962. Typhoon Freda was the twenty-eighth tropical depression, the twenty-third tropical storm, and the eighteenth typhoon of the 1962 Pacific typhoon season. Freda originated from a tropical disturbance over the Northwest Pacific on September 28. On October 3, the system strengthened into a tropical storm and was given the name Freda, before becoming a typhoon later that day, while moving northeastward. The storm quickly intensified, reaching its peak as a Category 3-equivalent typhoon on October 5, with maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 115 mp

La tempête du Columbus Day de 1962, aussi connue comme le Big Blow, est une tempête automnale issue des restes du typhon Freda et qui se classe parmi les plus intenses de tous les temps à avoir frappé les côtes du nord-ouest des États-Unis et de la Colombie-Britannique. Elle est la plus destructrice tempête de vent au XXe siècle aux États-Unis, surpassant même la tempête de l'Halloween 1991 (popularisée par le film En pleine tempête).

A tempestade do dia de Colombo de 1962 (também conhecido regionalmente como Grande sopro) foi um intenso ciclone extratropical que está listado entre os mais intensos ciclones a atingir a região noroeste dos Estados Unidos. A tempestade também foi a mais intensa a atingir a região desde 1948 e provavelmente desde 9 de janeiro de 1880. A tempestade, que atingiu a costa noroeste de Washington e a Ilha de Vancouver em 12 de outubro, é o mais intenso ciclone extratropical a atingir os Estados Unidos no Século XX, considerando-se os ventos. A intensidade do ciclone extratropical é comparável a um furacão de categoria 3 na escala de furacões de Saffir-Simpson.

The Columbus Day Storm of 1962 (also known as the Big Blow, and originally, and in Canada as Typhoon Freda) was a Pacific Northwest windstorm that struck the West Coast of Canada and the Pacific Northwest coast of the United States on October 12, 1962. Typhoon Freda was the twenty-eighth tropical depression, the twenty-third tropical storm, and the eighteenth typhoon of the 1962 Pacific typhoon season. Freda originated from a tropical disturbance over the Northwest Pacific on September 28. On October 3, the system strengthened into a tropical storm and was given the name Freda, before becoming a typhoon later that day, while moving northeastward. The storm quickly intensified, reaching its peak as a Category 3-equivalent typhoon on October 5, with maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 115 mph (185 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 948 millibars (28.0 inHg). Freda maintained its intensity for another day, before beginning to gradually weaken, later on October 6. On October 9, Freda weakened into a tropical storm, before transitioning into an extratropical cyclone on the next day. On October 11, Freda turned eastward and accelerated across the North Pacific, before striking the Pacific Northwest on the next day. On October 13, the cyclone made landfall on Washington and Vancouver Island, and then curved northwestward. Afterward, the system moved into Canada and weakened, before being absorbed by another developing storm to the south on October 17. The Columbus Day Storm of 1962 is considered to be the benchmark of extratropical wind storms. The storm ranks among the most intense to strike the region since at least 1948, likely since the January 9, 1880 "Great Gale" and snowstorm. The storm is a contender for the title of the most powerful extratropical cyclone recorded in the U.S. in the 20th century; with respect to wind velocity, it is unmatched by the March 1993 "Storm of the Century" and the "1991 Halloween Nor'easter" ("The Perfect Storm"). The system brought strong winds to the Pacific Northwest and southwest Canada, and was linked to 46 fatalities in the northwest and Northern California resulting from heavy rains and mudslides.

Cette tempête tire son nom du Jour de Christophe Colomb car elle a frappé les 12 et 13 octobre, moment de cette fête fériée aux États-Unis. Quarante six personnes furent tués par ce système et les dommages se sont élevés à l'époque à 985 millions $US.

A tempestade foi designada como a tempestade do dia de Colombo por ter atingido a região em 12 de outubro, Dia de Colombo na América do Norte, data que comemora a chegada de Cristóvão Colombo à América em 12 de outubro de 1492.
