ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Blizzard

Blizzard is like a giant snowstorm that covers everything around you with snow. It happens when very cold air meets moist air and makes lots of snowflakes.

Imagine you're playing outside in your yard and suddenly you feel really cold wind blowing. This cold wind is what creates a blizzard. The cold air brings lots of snowflakes with it, and they start to fall from the sky.

As more and more snowflakes fall, the ground starts to become covered in snow, the trees get snowy and the roads become full of snow. It's really beautiful to see, but you also have to be careful because it can be very dangerous too.

That's why people often make sure they have warm clothes and hats, and stay inside until the blizzard passes. Sometimes even schools have to close down when a big blizzard comes.

So, just remember, a blizzard is a really big snowstorm that can make everything around you covered in snow, and it's important to stay warm and safe during one.
