Blizzards- Blizzards are like severe storms in very cold temperatures. They are caused by different atmospheric pressures and freezing temperatures. They generally only occur in colder climates and can have devestating effects in the area it covers. Blizzards usually have high winds and are obviously below freezing temperature, which is why they cover the ground in snow and ice.
Hurricanes- Hurricanes are large masses of air mixed with different ocean water currents to create a vortex storm that can often hit land and destroy homes of both humans and animals. The warmer the water, the more intense the storm is. This is very relevant because of the waters in the Caribbean warming due to global warming. Recently, hurricanes have been larger and more destructive and occur more often. The most logical explanation is global warming because it explains the warmer temperatures of the water that fuels the hurricane vortex.
