The United States IS Expected to Have a COLD Winter This Year….

December might be extra chilly across parts of the United States because of a weather phenomenon unfolding miles above the North Pole.

It’s called sudden stratospheric warming and happens once every other winter on average. Despite the name, there’s unlikely to be any sudden warming where people live.

A rapid warming and weakening of winds in the stratosphere can disturb the polar vortex, a ring of frigid, stormy air that typically sits high above the North Pole.
