Letting them freeze their butt off would go a long way toward molding them into people who dress properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 According to Yahoo, the Polar Vortex was dislodged because of blocking in NE Canada. I think they meant to say Alaska? Would that even be a correct assumption that a blocking High over Alaska affected the Vortex's steering? http://news.yahoo.com/39-polar-vortex-39-creates-huge-temperature-difference-174437108.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Up to 7.2 now. 12 for a high seems about right. CAA should keep dca from spiking. That will be tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, I just went out to snap a couple pictures.. My hands are now ice cube cold and will take 15-30 minutes for the blood to get back into them (Reynauds response.)

The big ridge in AK and western Canada helped dig a piece of the vortex southeastwards from its mean position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
