Usually, when it’s snowing outside, it’s calm, pretty, and fun to play in! But there are certain types of big snowstorms, called blizzards, that can get really windy, wild, and even dangerous!
A blizzard is a powerful snowstorm. Low temperatures, strong winds, and large amounts of snow together create this dangerous weather condition. During a blizzard, the driving snow can make it difficult to see far.
This video satisfies the 3-ESS2-1, 3-ESS2-2, and 3-ESS3-1 requirements for third-grade science proficiency.
