***’polar vortex’,***

Back in the olden days of a few years ago they referred to as “The Siberian Express” or “Alberta Clipper”.

“Polar Vortex” gives it a more fearful ring, like calling a rain storm a “drenchero” or a sandstorm now called a “haboob”.

I’m thinking “polar vortex” will be the name of a Sci-Fi channel movie very, very soon.
