Just when weather weary Americans thought they’d found a reprieve, the latest forecasts suggest that the polar vortex will, again, descend into the heart of the country next week, bringing with it staggering cold. If so, it will be just the latest weather extreme in a winter that has seen so many of them. California has been extremely dry, while the flood-soaked U.K. has been extremely wet. Alaska has been extremely hot (as has Sochi), while the snow-pummeled U.S. East Coast has been extremely cold. They’re all different, and yet on a deeper level, perhaps, they’re all the same. grist.org/climate-energy/is-the-arctic-really-drunk-or-does-it-just-act-like-this-sometimes/
