Newsweek
The current cold snap in the US is caused by a disruption in the polar vortex, which is being stretched south across North America like a rubber band, leading to record-breaking low temperatures.
These stretching events are happening more often in the past decade or so, and are linked to human-caused climate change and decreasing pressure and temperature differences between the Arctic and the rest of the globe.
The changes in the jet stream triggered by the polar vortex outbreaks make cold air and weather systems plunge from north to south like a roller coaster, causing extreme weather conditions in the US and other parts of the world.
