A blizzard isn’t just any old snowstorm. It’s extreme winter weather. Watch and learn what makes these storms special.

We’ve animated the atmosphere to help explain some of its most intriguing phenomena. Meet a hurricane and a tornado. Find out what it takes for a cloud to form and why air pollution is dangerous. From snowflakes to heat waves, each short video in this suite will help people of all ages learn the science of our atmosphere. Animated Atmosphere videos were produced by the UCAR Center for Science Education with FableVision Studios.

The UCAR Center for Science Education serves the geoscience community by amplifying and complementing the work of the National Science Foundation’s National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) member universities by reaching our audiences: K-12 educators, university faculty, students, and the public through excellence in educational programs and experiences.
