  Jello Belt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jello Belt is a colloquial term in American English that refers to the parts of the Western United States with large populations of "Mormons" (properly called Latter-day Saints).
In Arizona, the Belt extends throughout all of the eastern part of the state, almost to the U.S.-Mexico border.
The name "Jello Belt" references the affection that Mormons supposedly have for Jell-O (a gelatin-based food), particularly when served with shredded carrots, or blended with canned fruit and set in molds.

In the U.S., the stronghold of the Bible Belt is typically seen as the South, due to the colonial foundations of Protestantism in the culture of the region.
It is possible that the extent of the Bible Belt has grown in recent decades, expanding northward and westward; indeed, evangelical Christianity has grown significantly in the United States in recent years.
The term Bible Belt is used mainly, but not uniquely, by detractors of or negative anti-Protestant commentators about region that is very religious, and allows religion to spill over into what the commentators believe are inappropriate areas, such as politics, science and education.

 Snowbelt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Near the Great Lakes, a particular form of snowbelt is lake-effect snow, caused by cold air picking up moisture while crossing the lake and then releasing it as snow when the air cools over land.
Well known snow belts exist southeast of Lake Erie from Cleveland, Ohio to Buffalo, New York and south of Lake Ontario stretching roughly from Rochester, New York, to Syracuse, and northward to Watertown.
Similar snow belts exist on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan in Michigan, and on the eastern shores of Lake Superior, Lake Huron, and Georgian Bay in Ontario, Canada, and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Mr Vaile said RASAC's review, undertaken between April and June, was based on information provided by the NSW Department of Agriculture; farmers; farmer organisations; bulk grain handling facilities; shires; agronomists; the Bureau of Rural Sciences and the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics.
While RASAC accepts that the frost was rare, harvest data for the application region as a whole did not indicate an 'exceptional' loss of yield equivalent to a 'one in 20 to 25 year' event, when compared with long-term records.
But as mentioned, farmers who believe the frost damage has placed their farms at risk should consider applying for FFRS support.
