Find the culprit that made the whole United States freeze

Along tracing the cause, the American people have to go through the days of snow and ice visit.

Public opinion in recent days is stirring up a snowy story that is raging across the United States. Cities like Buffalo, New York . in the last few days are almost paralyzed because of heavy snow and extremely low temperatures.

According to experts, there was a time when snow fell 1.5m thick, reaching a record in US history. The direct cause of the phenomenon is attributed to the snowstorm, but what is really hidden behind the storm?

Let's explore to find the most accurate answer.

Normally, the United States begins to enter the winter around December 21, 22 (Eastern solstice). However, right from the end of November, the American people suffered from the terrible cold spell coming from the snowstorm.

Accordingly, a series of cities in the US, including New York has been nearly paralyzed in the past few days because of heavy snowfall. Typically, in the city of Buffalo, western New York is covered with snow as high as 1.5m earlier in the week.

The situation in the United States is so urgent that State Governor Andrew Cuomo must declare a state of emergency in many locations, mobilizing the National Guard to support snow removal with the people.

Immediately, many meteorologists have sought to explain the extreme weather phenomenon mentioned above. Many people believe that heavy snow is due to a meteorological effect: 'lake effect'.

Specifically, this is a phenomenon that occurs when cold air from Canada moves through locations around the Great Lakes, which are very warm. This causes the snow to get thicker as well as create gusting winds.

The ice is so thick that cars have a chance to "hibernate" for nearly a week

However, many other experts insist that the effect only makes the weather more harsh, but the true cause is not so simple. According to them, the culprit really caused the whole United States to freeze itself as a polar tornado .

Accordingly, the world has two huge cold air masses located at two poles, called polar vortex. These two air masses move counterclockwise, becoming colder and denser in the air. Thanks to them, global weather is ensured stability.

However, when climate change causes the Earth to become hotter, the activity of both of these tornadoes is changed. In this case, the Northern polar cyclone itself caused extreme weather events in the United States.

Snow and ice in the US at this time is too high

Specifically, from 1960 to now, the Arctic has warmed up by 2 degrees C. In other words, the temperature between the North Pole and North America has been getting closer. Therefore, the North Pole cyclone tends to change movement, causing very 'paradoxical' weather phenomena .

Typically in 2013, the United States also experienced an almost 'frozen' period because of the cold. On the contrary, in lands that were as cold as latitude as Fairbanks or St. Peterburg, experts noted the warmest weather ever.

Therefore, many views suggest that the current snow and ice situation in the United States has many similarities with 2013, when the temperature here sometimes drops to -50 ° C. This northern polar vortex is stronger than the previous year. Experts predict, too much snowfall after melting could cause the United States to face the next disaster: flooding.

Thus, behind the current extreme weather phenomenon in the United States is the polar cyclone, which is broader than the manifestation of an increasingly serious climate change. Let's act together today, before having to witness the end of the green planet for climate change.
