- Blizzards can have winds just as powerful, maybe even more, as hurricane winds.
- Some blizzards may take up to 5 days of continuous snowing and wind.
- Some blizzards may start as "Nor' Easters" but evolve into massive and severe storms.
- A blizzard can decrease the visibility rate so much that it causes a whiteout, which is a large amount of falling snow that diminish all visibility and just shows the snow.
- Being out in a cold blizzard for a while can cause diseases or deaths. You can die from freezing to death or get hypothermia.
- The conditions of blizzards can be so dangerous, that people are urged to stay indoors, out of their cars, and off the streets during the blizzard.
- Recently, in 2013 there was the strongest blizzard in history since 1993. Remember all that snow in New Haven?
