NASA satellite captures infrared view of frigid air mass as it bears down on the US

NASA's satellite captured a polar vortex sweeping across Canada and the US Images show temperatures will be 20 to 30 degrees below the average this week It is set to head for the north central and northeastern US December 14 and 15 These areas will experience wind chills ending up in the -10 to -25 degrees F NASA's satellite captured a polar vortex sweeping across Canada and the US A polar vortex is expected to deliver temperatures 20 to 30 degrees below the average this week. These predictions stem from imagery collected by the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder instrument attached to NASA's Aqua satellite that measures temperature data in infrared light Juno captures stunning image of one of Jupiter's'pearls':...

Experts say the Arctic sea-ice loss is causing the polar vortex to shift and will cause longer winters.
