Natural Disasters - Blizzards

WALT: Research about other natural disasters for a better understanding.

Yesterday I blogged and researched about Typhoons and got a really good understanding about them (Typhoons) now I will be researching about Blizzards and how they occur/happen and what they are and so much more questions and things like that.

What is a blizzard?
A blizzard is actually a very windy snowstorm where it snows for a very very long time and where winds are very strong so it is a very severe (bad) snowstorm. How do they happen? Blizzards are caused by warm air rising over cold air from the equator which is the line in the center/middle of the Earth.

But what's the actual way of a Blizzard forming?
Well it is just as I said formed from warm air rising over cold air from the equator causing it to bind or be brought together and something called a front happens precipitation (rain, snow, hail, sleet).

Are Blizzards being caused by humans?
It is a natural disaster because snow and wind is not man or human made at all and that is why a blizzard is a natural disaster and the things humans are doing aren't participating in this natural disaster so therefore human actions aren't cause or affecting this natural disaster.
