“CBS News science contributor and City University of New York physics professor Michio Kaku joins “CBS This Morning” to discuss the science behind the coming Arctic blast.”
It appears that cold weather awaits us in the United States and I don’t doubt that it may be a cold winter. According to Michio Kau, “we’re going to have another episode of the polar vortex.:
Michio explains on CBS this morning that this super-storm that’s hitting Alaska packs “more energy than Hurricane Sandy.”
He predicts that mid-week (this week) that “all hell breaks loose.”
This storm will collide with the jet stream “pushing arctic air all the way to Florida.”
Michio further describes this phenomenon with the “geek term” Bombogenesis. Bombogenesis is when hot air and cold air collide creating temperatures “30 degrees below normal,” which Kaku is predicting to happen.
He says the worst case scenario could would mean a deep freeze, which would cause airlines canceling flights, trains will be disrupted, transpiration overall will be disrupted. This massive disruption will be peaking between Nov. 13 – 15.
Let’s monitor this weeks weather and prepare for the worst, but expect the best.
