Blizzard

"Blizzard" is a perfectly fine word that could serve us well for centuries. I wish we weren't calling every run-of-the-mill blizzard a "snowpocalypse".

True, it is a fun word. If we'd had it in '78 it would've come in handy. We made do with "blizzard" then.

Heh. I have been using snowpocalypse and snowmageddon to poke fun at these people who think a little snowstorm is somehow a big deal.
