Effects on people
The effects of blizzards on humans involves many different factors. First because of the high winds blowing the snow it makes it very difficult to see anything therefore if someone is driving it is unlikely that they have the visibility they need to safely drive. Other effects on humans include many sicknesses. The low air pressures and low temperatures can cause breathing difficulty, hypothermia and frostbite. On top of direct effects of a blizzard there are also the indirect effects that can happen after the blizzardhas already landed. Peoples homes can be effected because of the amount of snow that could possibly collapse a roof or the cold temperatures freezing pipes. The destruction of land possibly crops, will make it more expensive to shop and get food let alone if there is a disruption of traffic or other routes of transportation getting to food and water could be difficult.
