Winter Chill Incoming As Polar Vortex Begins Its Collapse
• The Polar Vortex is weakening due to stratospheric warming, signaling a colder winter for the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
• Peak disruption is expected around Thanksgiving, with Arctic air reaching mid-latitudes by early December, increasing snow chances.
• Europe may initially stay mild, but a shift could bring freezing air and heavy snow to northern and central regions.

The Polar Vortex, a large area of low pressure and cold air surrounding the Earth’s poles, is showing signs of weakening due to a sudden stratospheric warming event. This disruption is expected to send a chill across the United States, Canada, and Europe as winter approaches.
