| “a haunting mess
of beauty.” *** Lake Effect Snow: Three (3) main ingredients: The first ingredient is a relatively warm body of water. (for our purposes, a "Great Lake." Use the "HOMES" acronym to remember your great lakes: Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior). The second ingredient is a source of cold air. In the Great Lakes Region, that source comes from the high latitudes of North America where arctic air masses often "spill southward" over those warm bodies of water. Heat and moisture from the warm lakes rises into the "modified" arctic air where it then cools and condenses into snow clouds. The third ingredient is the prevailing wind direction through the depth of the snow clouds. It determines where the snow will occur. *** “Just as 'jazz' no longer aptly describes all
of its offshoots, the term 'country' is no longer a sufficient label
for bands such as Blanche who make atmosphere as well as music." *** MORE ***
