I remember the Blizzard of '93 we were out of school for 3 weeks.
I moved from VT to Texas , & i thank god every day i bolted & not just because of the weather!!!
Such a fantastic documentary. I experienced all of it!
I’m from Texas & it hardly ever snows here so this is very interesting to me. There’s no way I can handle this type of weather.
I was 6 in the 98' Ice Storm. It was absolutely brutal. Almost a month without power during a freezing winter. We were lucky enough to have a woodstove.
The most amazing thing I remember is the entire community of the northeast states (Mine being Maine) is everyone helped everyone else.
Well, I live in Buffalo, NY where we get "100 feet of snow in the middle of summer!" this is just an ordinary day for us. Ha!
Yes, AGW is Causing snow and cold. When I was growing up they said snow was going to be a thing of the past. If your theory does not meet the facts, just change your theory. Great science going on here.
We moved from the Philippines to Chicago in 2009, in 2011 Chicago experienced one of its worst blizzard in the city’s history, we were very surprised that when we wake up in the morning our cars are completely covered with snow. In January 2018 we experienced a very cold Chicago winter , for three days the temperature reached minus 28 with high temperatures only on the minus 20’s. I know these temp is warm enough in other cold parts of the world, but for us its very ridiculously agonizing.
I live in Virginia we had big storm in 2015 February. The snow was so deep we didn't get out for 3 days an it was still bad. I have seen many blizzards and big deep snows in my lifetime. Great documentary. We had plenty to eat and was lucky not to loose power
Every winter I have a blizzard 🌨
Welcome to Canada, eh? 😀 😛
This "documentary" was obviously made by a foreign network somewhere, I'm going to guess Eastern Europe? It definitely was not made in the U.S. and I'm going to again assume was not meant to be seen in the U.S. ? Because the inaccuracies are too obvious, esp regarding that 2009-2010 winter.
The worst narrator ever
For those that do not use metric measurements – could not both F and C measurements be given?
Pa 90s buried my Chevette only saw red ball on my Antenna
I live in Brisbane, Australia . It's winter now and I went for a 30 minute walk this evening in a t-shirt and jeans! No need for scarf, coat or beanie here. I can't imagine these blizzards.
I remember the Blizzard of '78 shut NYC and the Tri-State area down for a week! The snow was deeper than I was! As a kid, it was great because you get off from school, can play outside all day and make bank shoveling sidewalks. I remember my mother sending me to the market for milk and supplies for us and the neighbors and it was like going on an expedition!
I was born and raised in Minnesota, so I know all about the cold and blizzards. Went to school in a three day blizzard, been in a few white outs and had to go to work in -50 degree weather. I had to walk to and from school/work in five feet of snow. I remember the blizzard of '91 during Halloween. For us it was just another winter day that we couldn't do anything about. We learned to live with them.
More globull warming 🐴💩
What's worse is when your employer forces you to go to work.
This Global Warming Climate Change is causing conditions that has been happening for thousands of years.
Correction: The word is phenomena (plural), or phenomenae(old usage), not phenomenums or phenominums
Hahaha I live in florida suckers. Not gonna happen 😁 jelly doesn't look good on you lol
I can vouch, I live in the cnd prairies, we haven’t had a big enough blizzard to bury and stop trains in their tracks since 2013, I still have pics of whole trains buried, we are due for a massive one soon
Btw the prairies in Canada, I’ve seen snow every month of the year,not in the mountains
you can tell this is not a US made doc bc all the scenes are in the northeast cities not the upper midwest or mountains… I was here in Texas during our recent storm and noone had FWD so we couldnt get anywhere
You can't talk about blizzards without mentioning Canadian cities. Why focus on the States when Canada gets it worse most of the time. They seem to skip over the fact that most of these storms hit Canada first then move on to the States. And when the wind goes over the Rocky Mountains, it's called a Chinook, which have reached 160km/hr before.
I had to drive to work at night during a blizzard. Not fun. Started as rain, which then turned to snow. If you didn't know, that creates black ice. Never had I been so glad to have AWD. I swear my vehicle was at an angle more then it was straight for the entire trip to work. Then the snow started. Heavy and wet. Winds reached 110km/hr, and snow was falling at a rate of over 2cm/hr. It lasted for four days. On the fourth day though, every highway in my area was closed. So like anyone with common sense, I didn't go it. If a highway is closed, don't drive on it. By the end of the storm we had drifts 85cm high. I couldn't see the road in front of me, so I drove by looking out one of my side windows, driving about 30km/hr. (That's like driving in a school zone all the way to and from work). By the time I saw a vehicle in the ditch I had so little traction I couldn't even slow down. Pump the brakes and slide right by. It was white knuckle driving the entire way.
The international space station my ass. And that puke in the picture? The world is a sham
AMERICA…. WE DON'T DO km and cm s …. ENGLISH…. HAHA
GREAT VLOG BROTHER… justva lot of Matmatics for we Americans
F*, Inches ,and Miles
It's June 26 today, and 72`, I don't have AC on, and I'm sitting here watching this shivering!!!! I'm cold.
Ah yes the Canadian prairies where we call Blizzards your average Wednesday
I thought it was end of October and into November???
US National Weather Service definitions are in Metric measurements !? Seriously !!!????
2015 east coast storm is called a Nor'easter. Think of a winter hurricane – pretty normal for winters here and usually rough on the coast lines. i survived both snowmageddon and snowpocalypse (first was feb storms of '10, the 2nd was the december storms of 09'). Worst for my neck of the woods was 96' – 33 (83 cms) inches if not more in 48 hrs. Horrible experience…missed so much school that winter.
