some terminology associating it regionally rather than the continent I think would be appropriate. I don't know that it can be called a blizzard though; there's a technical definition of that. The press is calling it a blizzard, but I've not seen anything from the
National Weather Service to indicate this indeed was a blizzard. --
932:
The extent of the storm, as quoted by the article, states "Western
California", however the map shows that the furthest extent of the storm was in EASTERN California. Was this a typo/braino? Also, when referring to "Western California", it's usually referred to as "Coastal" California. Otherwise it's
748:
Sounds logical to me. I'm in something of a rush, though, so I'll ostensibly just create the article and add a brief lead to lay the basic framework for now. Once the article is created, the editors should, no doubt, come out in full force to flesh out a full and proper article over the course of the
671:
I went looking here on
Knowledge for more information on the storm there. I was rather shocked to find the only information we had was contained in a handful of sentences. The rest of the world is writing about the impact of this storm in WNY. Naming; given that the major impact was localized to WNY,
896:
I do not intend to use it based on census-outlined regions; I only intend to use the term in regards to the states most commonly referenced to as the "Midwest" (both in geographical delineations, advisories, and news coverage), and due to the widespread usage of the term. However, I do realize that
795:
Why does the article continually repeat that? Knowledge isn't the media and can focus on more than just the east coast (unlike national media, which has extraordinary bias towards east coast regions which few exceptions). The
Central (longitude of the) United States had several impacts as well, but
875:
It is too ambiguous and based solely on the Census rather than the realistic and other interpretations used by the people. The Census does what is convenient for itself, so the places almost always included in the "Midwest" are places north and east of approximately Kansas, with the most expansive
860:
Well, Midwest tends to refer to the northern part of the
Central United States. Yeah, I agree that "Central United States" should be used more often, but in many cases, the location I actually meant to refer to was the Midwest region (e.g. the region where the clipper systems "Astro" and "Bozeman"
633:) and that many observers have not yet given a final total because of the extreme conditions so the goal might have already been matched or exceeded. If that's the case after the final numbers are provided, the outlets will likely start reporting on it soon, and then sources can be culled.
817:
This is because the
Eastern US extends to the Mississippi River, where most of the impacts initially occured. I did include the mention of the Midwest in more recent mentions, but if you want to add Central United States (or Midwest), go right ahead.
31:
876:(in the southward direction) definition including parts of Arkansas and/or Oklahoma. If you are referring to the North-Central United States, say just that. Midwest is a bad and over-used term in my personal opinion.
628:
The "worst" aspect mentioned is the most snowfall recorded in a 24-hour period. News outlets have been reporting that areas in the storm were approaching 76 inches, the record, during the event (example: see
655:
I believe it's time to create a separate article for this massive blizzard in
Western New York. I believe the correct nomenclature would be November 2014 North American blizzard? Any consensus/volunteers?
696:, and nowhere in this State (I'm in snow-less New York City) is there a blizzard warning. Makes sense, since blizzards generally require very strong winds. So, perhaps we can name the branch article
