Dust stormВ вЂ“ A situation in which winds pick up large quantities of sand or soil, greatly reducing visibility.Dust devilВ вЂ“ A small, localized updraft of rising air.DerechoВ вЂ“ A derecho is a widespread, long-lived, straight-line wind storm that is associated with a land-based, fast-moving group of severe thunderstorms.Their impacts include coastal erosion and coastal flooding. Coastal StormВ вЂ“ Large wind waves and/or storm surge that strike the coastal zone.The winds experienced during these storms can be as powerful as that of a typhoon or hurricane. Bomb cycloneВ вЂ“ A rapid deepening of a mid-latitude cyclonic low-pressure area, typically occurring over the ocean, but can occur over land.Lately, the temperature criterion has fallen out of the definition across the United States. In general, a blizzard is accompanied by gale-force winds, heavy snow (accumulating at a rate of at least 5 centimeters (2В in) per hour), and very cold conditions (below approximately в€’10 degrees Celsius or 14В F). BlizzardВ вЂ“ There are varying definitions for blizzards, both over time and by location.There are many varieties and names for storms: Small localized areas of low pressure can form from hot air rising off hot ground, resulting in smaller disturbances such as dust devils and whirlwinds. This combination of opposing forces can create winds and result in the formation of storm clouds such as cumulonimbus. Storms are created when a center of low pressure develops with the system of high pressure surrounding it. The English word comes from Proto-Germanic *sturmaz meaning 'noise, tumult'. Heavy snowfall can allow special recreational activities to take place which would not be possible otherwise, such as skiing and snowmobiling. Systems with significant rainfall and duration help alleviate drought in places they move through. Storms have the potential to harm lives and property via storm surge, heavy rain or snow causing flooding or road impassibility, lightning, wildfires, and vertical and horizontal wind shear. It may be marked by significant disruptions to normal conditions such as strong wind, tornadoes, hail, thunder and lightning (a thunderstorm), heavy precipitation ( snowstorm, rainstorm), heavy freezing rain ( ice storm), strong winds ( tropical cyclone, windstorm), or wind transporting some substance through the atmosphere as in a dust storm, blizzard, sandstorm, etc. A storm is any disturbed state of an environment or in an astronomical body's atmosphere especially affecting its surface, and strongly implying severe weather.
