America to be hit with the 'most extreme cold on Earth' for December

"Meteorologists are predicting colder-than-normal temperatures to hit a large portion of the United States, which will bring the first snowstorms of the year to many areas. Towns and cities in northern Midwest have already been blanketed with snow this weekend and the same treatment is set to arrive in the central Plains, Ohio Valley, mid-Atlantic and New England starting early next week. There was a 45-car pileup along Interstate 70 about 10 miles from Terre Haute, Indiana, due to the snow."

"'My thinking is that the cold the first week of December is the appetizer and the main course will be in mid-December,' climatologist Judah Cohen, a research scientist at MIT, told USA Today. He further claimed that his computer model is forecasting 'that the most expansive region of most likely extreme cold on Earth stretches from the Canadian Plains to the US East Coast in the third week of December'."

"A 'polar vortex', or a large, low-pressure cold air system, will remain up above Canada for the next seven to ten days, said Weather Trader meteorologist Ryan Maue in a Substack post. Determining where snow will fall and how much is a bit trickier, given that precipitation cannot be predicted more than three days in advance. According to an AccuWeather forecast, a storm will form along a boundary where expanding cold air and warm air will have begun to meet from Monday to Tuesday night."

Colder-than-normal temperatures will affect much of the United States and bring the first snowstorms of the year. Towns and cities in the northern Midwest have already had snow, and the central Plains, Ohio Valley, mid-Atlantic and New England are expected to see snow early next week. A 45-car pileup occurred on Interstate 70 near Terre Haute, Indiana, as vehicles slid into the median and toward oncoming traffic. Incoming storms are expected to disrupt ground and air travel and cause temporary school closures. A polar vortex will linger above Canada for several days, with forecasts suggesting possible expansive extreme cold in mid-December and a boundary storm bringing snow, sleet and ice to many central and eastern states.
