B Correct answer
Explanation

A squall is a sudden, sharp increase in wind speed that is typically associated with active weather like rain or thunderstorms. It specifically refers to bad weather with strong winds and rain. A storm is broader, hailstorm involves ice pellets, a tornado is a rotating column of air, and 'blizard' is a misspelling of blizzard (which is snow-related, not rain).
