It depends. You cannot say one is worse than the other simply by the type of storm. Each individual storm must be assessed individually to say how bad it is. Additionally, some nor'easters are blizzards.

Which is worse a winter storm or a blizzard?

A blizzard is generally considered worse than a winter storm due to its specific criteria, which include sustained winds of 35 mph or more, heavy snowfall, and reduced visibility for at least three hours. While a winter storm can bring significant snowfall and cold temperatures, it may not have the severe wind and visibility conditions that characterize a blizzard.
