The Mid-20th Century Winter Cooling in the Eastern U.S. Explained
Editors’ Highlights are summaries of recent papers by AGU’s journal editors. Source: AGU Advances Waves in the polar jet stream over eastern North America are often responsible for cold air outbreaks and extreme winter storms. A 1990-2010 increase in jet stream waviness has, controversially, been linked to unusually rapid warming in the Arctic and has been thought to foreshadow a rise in extreme weather as climate change progresses. However, the…
Study challenges climate change's link to our wild winter jet stream
Hanover NH (SPX) Jun 30, 2025 Dartmouth study challenges the idea that climate change is behind the erratic wintertime behavior of the polar jet stream, the massive current of Arctic air that regulates weather for much of the Northern Hemisphere. Large waves in the jet stream observed since the 1990s have, in recent years, driven abnormally frigid temperatures and devastating winter storms deep into regions such as the
