  2. How do BlizzardsStart? • For snow to fall to the ground, the temperature must be cold both up in the clouds where snow forms, and down at ground level. If the air near ground level is to warm, the snow will melt on its way down , changing to rain or freezing rain so a blizzard cannot form. • A blizzard starts when freezing polar air meets warm, tropical air. • Blizzards start like most snowstorms, the difference is the temperature and the wind. In a blizzard wind can knock over a skyscraper.
