January Outlook: Polar Vortex To Deliver Classic Canadian Cold

[@TheIvanyoung]

Polar Vortex is a term weather officials invented to make it sound dramatic and scray.

[@cannabudsguy]

couple more years they gonna be like. " Snow Nuke on its way to obliterate eastern canada with 2 cm of snow this weekend"

[@daleweiss9507]

Just like "heat dome" or "atmospheric river".

@@daleweiss9507trust me on the heat domes in stx r not to mess with😭

[@johnhess9443]

In summer, it's going to be warmer.... until around next winter.

[@deborahgarry9363]

Alberta here. I've seen snow in every month here. Even in summer.

[@marsgal42]

State the temperature. State the wind. Lose the drama. It's winter. Deal with it.

[@Pavlovshouse-ud5ek]

Oh my God. Winter….in January…….in Canada. How can this be.

[@masonryjoe]

Well it hasn't been in the last few years in my area of lower Lake Simcoe, winter is here with a vengeance, I prefer it to slush and rain, -10 is much easer to deal with IMO.

[@doc7569]

Why do you watch the weather then ? It's January, you know it's gonna be cold yet here you are, watching the weather complaining lol

​@doc7569 well, maybe she is heading on vacation or has a wedding to attend to!! Lol. These new generation hosts are hilarious to listen to.... They make a big problem from nothing

[@ingleberthumperdink9455]

@@masonryjoeya well you can blame that on the weather modification programs just like this winter. You haven’t seen a day of natural weather in over 30+ years people

[@piperlynne1]

We don't even have any snow where we live in BC. I know that the mountains are getting lots of snow but down in the Columbia Valley we are getting rain and no snow.

[@honkhonk8009]

yea it litterally doesnt even feel like fall either. It genuinely feels like a gloomier summer. Everybody was hyped for christmas but it just didnt feel right. Man I wish snow came in.

[@mikemarkowski4547]

Winters got warmer

[@jonathanmusicco55]

Polar vortex, JUST STOP!!! It's only winter weather as per the last million years

Winter rules!

[@cornstar1253]

In my area it's been brutally cold last 3 winters.

[@kayecastleman6353]

I agree... shifting above and below freezing creates ice everywhere that's a hazard for drivers and pedestrians. Give me a steady -5 to -15 any time. The body acclimatizes and as long as you dress appropriately, those sunny winter days are glorious.

[@petersplacehomeschool3369]

No snow in fort erie

[@psoon04286]

Sounds pretty typical for us in the western parts

[@MrG9002]

winter it's called.

[@timma0175]

Yupp its winter outside...

[@ronpiticco7222]

Finally admitting by saying classic. It’s Canada every year since long before us.

[@Davran2742]

All the ridiculous trolls triggered by meteorological terms should be quiet and listen to the adults.

[@sherlockbonez]

I am ready for ice quakes!

[@RS-ob1vr]

Yeh right!! Not in the west coast !! What polar vortex???😮😮😮

[@Clouds-su3dc]

Finally some below seasonal temperatures.

Notice how climate change conferences don't take place in Edmonton Oct-April?

all the verbal crap

The New year brought many miserable people along I see😮😅😂😅 .

[@petergaudet1210]

who writes this for them ?ugh

[@wayneque2101]

Wow,,, I thought we had global warming, why do we have all this cold 🥶 and snow ❄️????? The ice caps were to melt years ago. Ocean front property should be under water now,,, why not????????

[@doc7569]

No one said that... lol go outside

[@concerned_2023]

Global warming affects the climate patterns which causes changes with what we're familiar with - the weather.

[@satisfiedcustomer9561]

Global warming doesn't just mean things get hotter only. Warming of temperatures globally affects the weather patterns, including countries that never have snow getting snow, etc. It's not that complicated.

[@wayneque2101]

@ global warming is bulshit, it’s seasonal change, the same change we have always had!!!

[@Clouds-su3dc]

Global warming is like a double-edged sword. On one side, we’ve got lower altitudes trapping heat, which isn’t great, making things warmer down here. But then, check this out: the upper altitudes are actually getting colder because that heat isn’t escaping into space. So when storms roll in, they mix that cold air with the warm air, helping to balance things out a bit. Then there’s the water temperature rising, which leads to more clouds. Those clouds are like nature’s sunglasses, reflecting sunlight and keeping things cooler. Plus, when it rains, that water helps soak up CO2, feeding plants and keeping the air cleaner. And don’t forget about the fresh water from the Arctic! When it flows into the ocean, it’s less dense than saltwater, making it harder for the ocean to soak up heat and that’s what can also lead to extreme cold spells in some areas that typically don’t get it that cold.

[@glennabarry1261]

Defiantly global warming.

Yikes I thought that was Lauren Boebert.
