Snowacane

This snowstorm that we have had recently, is related to a hurricane. A hurricane forms by having warm water and air. When the warm air from the water rises, making low pressure and cold air below it. The snowstorm we just had is just the same exept as the process was happening, snow fell because of the high level of cold air. The wind was shy of the power of hurricane wind. The waind was knocking over trees and powerlines all day. We had about one to two feet of snow during this storm. This effected the community because no one was permitted to drive on the roads and some trees were knocked down and power was out for hours.
