“Polar Vortex” Set to Strike the U.S. as Snowstorm Death Toll Rises

Slate  

The cold weather that is being blamed for at least 16 deaths is sticking around. What one meteorologist calls a “polar vortex”—a pool of cold, dense air—will be making its way down from the North Pole toward the United States, going as far south as the Gulf Coast, reports the Associated Press. The National Weather Service warned that the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest will be struck by “dangerously cold temperatures” by Sunday night. Well, “wind chills colder than 50 below can cause exposed flesh to freeze in only 5 to 10 minutes,” as the weather service warned. Meteorologist Ryan Maue puts it succinctly: “If you’re under 40, you’ve not seen this stuff before.” And football fans could also be in for a frigid treat as Sunday’s playoff game between the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49ers could turn out to be one of the coldest NFL games ever played.
