Blizzard!

Watching a lot of weather news tonight because a big blizzard is supposed to move through Edmonton overnight. Apparently, blizzards are a special kind of winter storm that must fulfill certain requirements (from wikipedia: winds of 40 km/h or more, snow or blowing snow, visibility less than 1 km, a wind chill of less than −25 °C, all of these conditions must last 3 hours or more) to be called a blizzard.

It's so special that Environment Canada even has a special graphic to denote "Blizzard" in its forecast:

Curly wind! Star snow!

And that will be the cutest thing about the weather in the next five days.
