Extreme Winter Cold Used to Sell Global Warming
The recent cold snap that sent brutal Arctic temperatures across the American Midwest and Northeast was brought to us by an atmospheric condition known as the polar vortex, a cyclonic flow in Earth’s troposphere and stratosphere, which normally hovers over the Arctic and northern reaches of Canada and Asia.
The National Weather Service described the conditions on January 30, 2019 thusly: “One of the coldest Arctic air masses in recent memory is surging south into the Upper Midwest before spreading across much of the eastern two-thirds of the country. Through late week, expect frigid temperatures, bitterly cold and life-threatening wind chills, likely leading to widespread record lows and low maximum temperatures from the Upper Midwest to the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.”
And if you listen to some climatologists, the polar vortex was brought to us courtesy of humanity’s media-hyped nemesis, global warming.
