Ingredients:

 

polar air

warm air full of water vapor

low temperatures

winds of at least 35 miles per hour

First mix a mass of polar air with a mass of warm air full of vapor. Beat well while they struggle for space. Briskly, the polar air pushes the warm air up. It settles high in the atmosphere where the water vapor in the air forms snow clouds. Toss in some high winds and low temperatures and out comes a blizzard. It can brew from minutes to days or even weeks.
