…northeastern US, study says. ""Basically, this confirms the story I've been telling for a couple of years now," said study co-author Jennifer Francis, research professor of marine and coastal sciences in Rutgers' School of Environmental and Biological Sciences. "Warm temperatures in the Arctic cause the jet stream to take these wild swings, and when it swings farther south, that causes cold air to reach farther south. These swings tend to hang around for awhile, so the weather we have in the eastern United States, whether it's cold or warm, tends to stay with us longer." The research is timely given the extreme winter of 2017-2018, including record warm Arctic and low sea ice, record-breaking polar vortex disruption, record-breaking cold and disruptive snowfalls in the United States and Europe, severe "bomb cyclones" and costly nor'easters, said Judah Cohen, director of seasonal forecasting at AER and lead author of the study…" Main page link Amicalement Armand |

All this faddish talk about "polar vortices" and "bomb cyclones" gets me a bit dizzy. Dan

record-breaking polar vortex disruption, record-breaking cold and disruptive snowfalls in the United States and Europe, severe "bomb cyclones" and costly nor'easters Really trying to cover all bases with this. Record-Breaking (when it mostly likely wasn't) Disruptive Snowfalls (Aren't all Snowfalls Disruptive) The Classic "Bomb Cyclones" (They are neither Bombs or Cyclones) Costly Nor'Easters (gee like these never have happen before) None of the weather this winter comes close to the Winter of 1888 but when you have Agendas you go all out with the scare tactics. Caribe, has it right they are just trying to suck everyone into their beliefs. |
