Wind can blow loose, powdery snow into drifts. A snow blower is a machine that people use to clear driveways and sidewalks, which prevents ice from forming in those spots.
Blizzard or snow squall
A blizzard can bring heavy snowfall with rates of 2-4 inches per hour, leading to total accumulations of several feet in some cases. However, the amount of snow can vary depending on the specific conditions and duration of the blizzard.
The biggest myth is that a blizzard is defined by how deeply snow is piled up by a given storm system. Actually, the definition of a blizzard by the U.S. National Weather Service has nothing to do with snow depth - it is based on (1) wind and (2) how dramatically visibility is reduced by snow or blowing snow (that is, it's not how the flakes pile up, it's how they obscure vision, that is the primary measure of a blizzard). Blowing snow can create blizzard conditions when no snow is falling at all.From the National Weather Service glossary, a blizzard occurs when two conditions prevail (they needn't be met constantly) for a period of at least 3 hours: winds of 35 mph or higher, and visibility reduced to 1/4 mile or less.
A large amount of snow is typically called a snowstorm or a blizzard when there is heavy precipitation and strong winds, leading to significant accumulation.
A storm with considerable falling and blowing snow is typically referred to as a blizzard. Blizzards are characterized by strong winds, low temperatures, and reduced visibility due to blowing snow. These conditions can create hazardous travel conditions and disrupt daily activities.
a storm cloud is called a cumulonimbus.
