This is a serious question—any weather science experts out there please respond. The forecast for this blizzard has changed several times a day for the past few days and its projected vehemence apparently has surprised forecasters.

#Alfred #Wegener (died November 1930 in Greenland) was a #German #geologist, #polarexplorer, and #meteorologist. He is primarily known for his #theory of #continentaldrift, which has significantly influenced modern theories of #platetectonics. Fossil discoveries and similar calving fronts along the west coast of #Africa and the east coast of #SouthAmerica led him to his theory, which is still crucial for understanding the #evolutionaryhistory of life on Earth.
