Blizzard!
While the media rush to call any severe or heavy snowstorm a blizzard, true blizzards have a strict definition according to meteorologists, and snow need not even fall in a blizzard. Blizzards take on different characteristics when they rage around North America, combining wind and temperature and snow into a variety of recipes, though they all start as low pressure systems.

Sooty Shearwater
Charles Darwin in The Voyage of the Beagle said, "The Sooty Shearwater generally frequents the inland sounds of southern Chile in very large flocks: I do not think I ever saw so many birds of any other sort together, as I once saw of these behind the island of Chiloe. Hundreds of thousands flew in an irregular line for several hours in one direction. When part of the flock settled on the water the surface was blackened, and a noise proceeded from them as of human beings talking in the distance."

Snowflakes
We think snowflakes, or more correctly snow crystals, are six-sided, frilly stars and are fairly flat like a pizza. Snow-crystal structure, however, takes on many forms from flat hexagonal plates to three-dimensional small hexagonal pillars with hexagonal plates lying on each end.
