Temperatures plunged into the teens and single digits in some spots, and the snow-dusted winds are driving the wind chill below zero. The polar vortex, a swirling mass of Arctic air typically contained over the North Pole, has pushed south, driving bone-chilling temperatures into the eastern United States.
A lobe of the polar vortex, a stormy ring that typically keeps the coldest air locked up near the North Pole, will dip southward into the United States this weekend into next week. Polar air ...
It looks like it could get even colder heading into next week. Within the last decade, the phrase 'polar vortex' has become popularized in the weather world. In fact, you may have heard it getting ...
The polar vortex is a low-pressure system of cold air that swirls above Earth’s poles. There’s one over the South Pole in Antarctica – but for this story, we’ll be focusing on the one above the North Pole. Over the North Pole, the wind flows counterclockwise in the stratosphere around 16 to 50 kilometers (10-30 miles) high.
A polar vortex dipping down from Siberia will bring a cold front with frigid temperatures to nearly 300 million Americans. See maps of the arctic blast.
A polar vortex is slated to sweep most of the continental US bringing winter storm warnings and a hazardous freeze to millions.
A new blast of Arctic air sweeping from north to south will bring bone-chilling temperatures to millions of Americans this weekend and next week.
The polar vortex is a ring of cold air that typically circles the Arctic. A strong jet stream essentially acts like a fence, keeping it locked there. If there's any weakening in the jet stream (the fence), the frigid air can become unstable and spill out. This sends the normally trapped cold air much farther south.
A disruption in the polar vortex is about to send an Arctic air mass from Siberia as far south as Florida. Yes, Siberia—and it’s as dramatic as it sounds. As many as 47 states will experience unseasonably cold temperatures. Some areas will be hit with dangerous wind chills as low as 40 below zero.
