Arctic Blasts and Winter Storms Threaten Minneapolis, Chicago, Des Moines, and St. Louis From Thanksgiving Week Into December After Polar Vortex Disruption

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — A Sudden Stratospheric Warming Event has officially occurred high above the North Pole, and it could set the stage for a major pattern change across the Midwest. The event has disrupted the polar vortex, which often opens the door for Arctic air to spill south into the Lower 48. Forecasters say the change could last from Thanksgiving week through at least the first half of December. Repeated Arctic blasts and elevated winter storm chances are expected across a wide part of the region.
