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.

Wow. I now regret deeply living in temperate climes for the last ten years; I'll never get to use that word.

On the other hand, what if you get a worse storm later on, I hope you'll be able to come up with something suitably fucktasmarigtigally evocative?
