A new study led by Atmospheric and Environmental Research and published in Science reveals an increasing frequency of polar vortex disruptions favorable for extreme winter weather in the US, potentially linked to Arctic change. The research shows that a stretched polar vortex, which has become more common since 1979, correlates with extreme winter events like the 2021 Texas cold wave.
