Polar Vortex... What the heck is that?
It would seem that most of us are blissfully ignorant of what happens at the poles. There is a persistent circular cyclone like wind pattern that encircles both our geographic poles. When the pressure gets just right the cyclone moves in the direction of the low pressure. This just happened to make it a very cold first week of 2014.
I have little more to say on the topic (this time) other than think of your pets, plants, and help the homeless shelters and the elderly weather the winter. Stay warm!
