Arctic Explosion America: A movie came out in 2010 by the name of Arctic blast. In this it was shown that due to the solar eclipse, such a cold wind reaches the earth, because of which only ice freezes everywhere and there is chaos in the world.

There is a similar weather scene in America right now. This is the arctic blast effect. As is clear from the name itself, this is the most feared form of explosion of the season. The people of America have been preparing for Christmas for the past few days, but this week they have to fight to avoid the biggest blow of the season. Due to the Arctic explosion, most of the United States is in the grip of bitter cold, snowfall, and bone-chilling winds this week.

Below zero mercury in most areas of the Americas
About 70 percent of the United States population has been engulfed by the ravages of weather, Arctic Blast and BOMB Cyclone. Its only effect is that today the mercury has reached minus 20 to minus 36 degrees Celsius in many areas of America. This arctic blast is slowly moving to take the form of a BOMB cyclone. We can also call the cyclone BOMB the most feared monster of the season. All this is happening because of the cold winds that come from the arctic region of the Earth’s North Pole.

Before we dive into Arctic Blast and BOMB Cyclone, let’s take a look at how it’s affecting the US:

news reels

1. In view of the danger of the arctic explosion and cyclone BOMB, 48 states of America have been placed on dangerous weather alert.
2. In these 48 states of America, more than 200 million people are fighting against the dangers of the arctic blast and cyclone BOMB.
3. US residents preparing for the Christmas holidays have been shocked by the cancellation of 4,400 flights.
4. The plains of America stretched out in the grip of hand-shaking cold until Friday. The storm of cold winds moves from Canada to the lower part of America, endangering the lives of people.
5. According to the National Weather Service (NWS) of America, the situation worsens due to the arrival of the Arctic Blast with shells of cold air in the areas of southern America already forced to endure the cold.
6. Taking precautions, an emergency has been declared in many states, including North Carolina, Kentucky, Oregon.

sudden drop in temperature

The temperature at the Denver International Airport reached 24 degrees below zero on Thursday morning. It was the coldest December day since 1990. Denver is the capital of the US state of Colorado. The effect of the arctic blast is that there was a 75°F difference in temperature in Denver between Wednesday and Thursday. In Denver, such a 48-hour drop in temperature had occurred only once before. The limit was reached when a temperature difference of 37°F was felt at the Denver airport within an hour on Wednesday. This is the largest one-hour drop in Denver’s temperature record thus far. The arctic blast also brought a 4-inch-thick layer of snow to Denver. About 600 flights had to be canceled in Denver alone. Temperatures as low as -54 °F were recorded in some areas of the state of Nebraska over Colorado.

Dangerous cold temperatures and winds will continue to affect and spread east through the day from the Rocky Mountains, South, Midwest, Great Lakes and moving up through the East Coast.

Power supply interrupted in many parts

The ravages of the Arctic explosion are also being seen in South America. The people of the state of Texas, in the South and Central America, are also fighting against this dreaded wind. Due to the arrival of the Arctic Blast, thousands of people here were forced to live without electricity. Much of the northern city of Dallas, Texas, was in the dark Thursday night. Big cities like Austin and Houston, the capital of Texas, are also in poor condition due to the intense cold.

The effect is visible as far as Mexico

The effect of the arctic explosion is being seen as far as Mexico. Cold winds have reached Ciudad Juárez from Mexico via El Paso in Texas. A large number of migrants are forced to live in camps in this city of Mexico. After the arctic blast, Bomb Cyclone has created heavy snow and blizzard conditions in the Midwestern states of America.

President Biden is monitoring the situation.

It is estimated that just like the western parts, in the next two days, most of the eastern parts of America will also be under the grip of arctic blast and cyclone BOMB. The President of the United States, Joe Biden, is constantly monitoring the situation. They are taking moment by moment information from the National Weather Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Biden has said that this is a really severe weather warning and that the White House is in constant contact with the 26 governors of the most affected states.

Mercury can roll up to minus 57 degrees

In the last 8 years, the people of America and Canada did not have to go through such a big incident of cold and sudden drop in temperature. It is estimated that in some parts of the US plains, the mercury can drop to minus 70 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 57 degrees Celsius.

What is the arctic blast?

The arctic blast brought cold, massive snowfall and blistering cold winds to much of the US this week. The area around the Earth’s North Pole is known as the Arctic. In common language, it can be said that in the Arctic Blast, a big ball of cold air from this part comes to America through Canada and there is a sudden drop in temperature in most of America. In this situation, the temperature can drop more than 20 degrees Fahrenheit or 11 degrees Celsius in a few hours. Within a few minutes or a few hours, the temperature reaches dangerous levels well below freezing. On the plains, the temperature can drop as low as minus 70 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 57 degrees Celsius.

arctic blast formation

The formation process of the arctic blast starts from the very north of the earth. Cold air accumulates in the snow-covered areas of the Arctic. Then, in the form of a jet stream, this cold air begins to move toward America. Also, it collides with relatively warm and humid air and this creates such a system, which then takes the form of a BOMB cyclone to wreak havoc across the United States.

What is Cyclone BOMB?
Cyclone BOMB is not a normal storm. This is a deadly storm. The cold wind storm then becomes a BOMB cyclone. It progresses very fast. You can guess its destructive effect from the fact that Cyclone BOMB is moving forward with pressure as a Category 2 hurricane. Meteorologists believe that Cyclone BOMB is a once in a generation type of event. According to the National Weather Service, one to three feet of snow could accumulate in and around the city of Buffalo, near New York, on Friday, and cold winds could blow as fast as 70 miles per hour.

BOMB Cyclone formation process

Cyclone BOMB forms when the atmospheric pressure drops very quickly in a strong storm. This time, forecasters believe that the conditions for the formation of a BOMB cyclone are being created in the areas of the Great Lakes located on the border of Canada and America. The cold winds are moving at a speed of 70 to 80 miles per hour while taking the form of a BOMB cyclone due to the effect of the arctic blast. You can imagine how difficult it can be to withstand cold winds at this speed.

Flash Freeze in Northeast America

Situations like flash freezing have occurred in many areas of the Americas, especially in the northeastern parts. Heavy rain is expected in parts of the Northeast, including Washington and Philadelphia. After that, a sudden and rapid drop in temperature will increase the risk of sudden frostbite. When there is a sudden drop in temperature, anything wet on the road or on the ground freezes. This is called flash freezing. This condition is considered a winter sneak hazard. Driving on the roads in such conditions is extremely dangerous.

How dangerous is the Arctic explosion for the United States?

Arctic blast causes heavy rain. Strong winds blow and flood situations also occur in coastal areas. Due to a sudden drop in temperature, after heavy rains, mountains of snow are formed in many places. The people of America suffer from snowfall or snowfall every year, but due to the formation of snow mountains due to the arctic explosion, the difficulties of the people are multiplied. Due to icing on the roads, it takes a long time to restore traffic. It should be understood that after the Arctic explosion, there is a big difference between snow formation and snowfall everywhere. A thick layer of ice also accumulates on electricity transmission lines. Because of this, many areas are plunged into darkness. You can imagine how dangerous the arctic blast and cyclone BOMB are, producing one to two inches of snow every hour. Cold winds blow at a speed of 50 miles per hour. This reduces visibility to almost zero.

understand arctic rocker

Due to the arctic blast and cyclone BOMB, there is a sudden temperature difference in many areas of America. Meteorologists call this type of arctic weather pattern wobbling. In this type of pattern, there is a large difference in the temperature of a place in a very short time. This is not a normal pattern in terms of weather. This happens when warm air rises in eastern Siberia and western Alaska and from there the dreaded arctic air begins to flow into the lower part of America.

Two-thirds of the United States is likely to be severely affected by the Arctic blast and Cyclone BOMB. By the end of the year, the people of America are expected to be relieved of these cold winds.
