People who were in the northwest and midwest US in 1978 might recall the blizzard of ‘78. It was the second blizzard I experienced, the first being the blizzard of 1966 when I was a child in New York, near NYC. Both of these blizzards achieved historical magnitude.
The question is, will the blizzard of 2022 end up with its own article or will it fail to achieve the ”notability“ demanded by the (eventually converged on) rigorous standards of the de facto depository of truth that is Wikipedia?
As thing stand now, close to the southern end of Lake Michigan here in the Great Lakes Region, we have at least 2’ (60mm) of not-very-wet snow and the current temperature is -7℉ (-22℃). The ~15mph (24kph) wind with gusting is taking advantage to blow the snow around.
It isn’t snowing at the moment, but we are assured more is on the way, followed by a special helping of lake effect snow which is a local specialty served up all winter. If the storm continues at its current pace it is on track for an honorable mention but not a figurative commemorative brass plaque in the human memory of winter storms.
