A Penguin Storm is something after all

For everybody who says there’s no such thing as a Penguin Storm, I found this:

The [Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG)] has six categories of storms ranging from a one penguin storm which is a minor storm with less than four inches of snow and increases up to a five penguin storm which is 18 to 24 inches of snow and brings the area to a stand-still for a period of time. The final category is a penguin in an ice cube which describes the area’s response to an ice storm.

More information is here.
