Best Answer

Both are storms that produce strong winds. Aside from that they are completely different.

A blizzard is a winter storm that produces gale-force winds (wind of at least 39 mph) with thick falling or blowing snow that reduces visibility to a quarter mile or less.

A hurricane is a tropical cyclone, a storm system that forms over warm ocean water, with sustained winds of at least 74 mph.
