Giant snowstorm coming

 **traveller notice:  Do not go to Ottawa



This is good physics.  Normally, any collision between cold and hot air forms a vortex, which is a classical snowstorm, big storm, or hurricane.

This one is linear.  There is a collision over a huge area.  The last one spawned all those deadly tornadoes, and this one could be bigger.

ps.  a linear storm has a cylindrical vortex, much like the jet stream.  I was canoeing once and saw one approach us.  The cloud looked like a giant steamroller coming to crush us.  I paddled very fast.
