I’m Barney Blizzard
and you don’t want
to meet me unless
you’re prepared.
Weather forecasters use specific
terms to tell people about what
kind of severe weather to expect:
Winter Weather Advisory
means conditions are expected to create
problems that may be hazardous.
Winter Storm Watch
means severe winter conditions, like heavy
snow or ice may happen, but it’s not a
sure thing.
Winter Storm Warning
means that 4 or more inches of snow is
expected in the next 12 hours or 1/4 inch
of ice accumulations.
Blizzard Warning
means snow and strong winds will produce
blinding snow, deep drifts and life-threatening
wind chill.
Ready Kat says:
“My friends and
I stay alert when
winter weather
is near.”
