Talk:February 9–10, 2010 North American blizzard

comment

The article is not yet complete, it refers to a completely separate storm than the blizzard that hit 3 days prior to this one.

Shouldn't this be more professional sounding? Round 2 sounds dumb, and despite the fact that these might be separate storms, the definition of a blizzard requires that the snow either be falling, or already fallen, and therefore this can be considered the same blizzard since most of the snow blowing around is a combination of the earlier snow that already fell from the last storm and the snow from the new storm. This really should either be deleted or completely reworked, with the term "round 2" removed. I suggest just adding this content to the existing page talking about the North American blizzard of 2010. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.177.162.208 (talk) 17:35, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

These are completely separate storms with different meteorological synopsis. The only coincidence is that they happened within days of each other and both were blizzards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.12.88.10 (talk) 20:33, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

This is almost unheard of to have two major blizzards in the Northeast so fast. A merged article (blizzards in plural) might be ideal, similar to tornado outbreak sequences. CrazyC83 (talk) 23:10, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

They are two different storms, which need two pages. In Philadelphia, the first one was the second-largest ever, and the current one will be up there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.185.170.130 (talk) 23:52, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

The Federal government is treating it as single storm, for federal emergency funds purposes. Green Cardamom (talk) 03:41, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Impact

Maryland, Delaware, DC aren't even Mentioned. MD was hit the worst with some areas getting snowed in for weeks. The people stranded on 15N in Thurmont is a good starting point for MD. Also this storm produced true blizzard conditions,a rarity along the east coast. Even 1996 and 2003 did not produce the extended period of crippling whiteout conditions that this storm produced, even though those storms dumped more snow. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.120.84 (talk) 01:33, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Haven't heard any fatalities associated with this storm, but should put this in if applicable. Also, might want to mention power outages as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.124.68.233 (talk) 15:37, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Suggest separation into "Snowfall" and "Impact" sections to keep consistent with other articles on winter storms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.124.68.233 (talk) 15:40, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Title

The title of the article should be the North American Blizzard of 2010 Round 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.156.179.114 (talk) 22:33, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

No, it should stay as it is, as Round 2 would imply that they were the same blizzard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.185.170.130 (talk) 12:40, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

This article as it stands currently (November 22, 2010) is a joke

This article is sad. Can someone clean it up? Famartin (talk) 03:03, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm... I read the article and a few of the refs and it seems just fine to me. If Famartin thought it needed work s/he should have been specific or, of course, "clean it up" him/her self. I'm removing the tag. Gandydancer (talk) 20:59, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
