Just when you think you have a handle on the many types of natural threats and hazards along comes a new one. This one is called a Polar Vortex. Extremely low temperatures are expected over much of the U.S. According to CNN, the temps will be the coldest we have seen for 20 years.

That’s really not a new type of natural disaster 🙂 It’s just that 10 years ago Facebook didn’t exist to share as much meteorologoical terminology. Polar Vortex events have been occurring for ages…
Right you are. New to me does not mean new to everyone!
Thanks to the Internet, we all know more about weather (or at least weather terminology) than we used to, I think.
