Or, foster your children's love for snow and watch them volunteer to shovel even before their teenage years!
Tried that. My older kid used the shovel and tried to make an igloo in the driveaway last year.
No shovel for them.

I can't remember the exact criteria for a blizzard, but I would call it a blizzard here. Very low visibility in blowing snow, rapid drifting.
Same conditions in Harrison Mills. If these aren't blizzard conditions at the moment, not sure what are
. This is just the best snow storm. Will be hard to top it!!
