                 Extreme Weather

 

Extreme weather includes zero visiblity fog to hail so large that it will

 

destroy cars.

   

 

All over the world the the fog is very bad every year the death tole goes up for

 

crashes and the damages go up too from hail storms ruining gardens and making

 

dents in cars.  Every year blizzards devastate the land but people have made

 

adjustments and ways to stop damage and deaths like salting the roads and

 

parking under cover.

EXTREME WEATHER

 

The worst blizzard in North American history happened on March 12 - 14, 1888. It affected

 

areas from Maryland and north to some places in Canada .

 

In some areas the snow drifts were fifty feet high.  200 ships were lost at sea and in

 

harbors. 100 sailors lost their lives.

 

Fire damages were very high because the fireman were unable to get to the fires.   

 

 

 

 

 

The worst hail storm happened on November 4, 2007.  Rain and hail fell all over

 

Bogotá, Colombia’s capital city. The city became white around 3 p.m.  Downtown

 

the water levels rose to 1.5 meters and 100 or so people were trapped in their

 

cars.  There were no casualities but many people were treated for hypothermia.
