Midwest has never experienced a weather as cold as expected this Sunday. The ‘Polar Vortex’ as one meteorologist named it, is expected to bring record low, freezing temperatures and fears of hypothermia and frost-bite to the tier from Cleveland to Boston.
The weather this Friday shows no sign of easing while another blast from Canada is expected to drive the weekend temperatures to an all time record low. The National Weather Service informed that ‘dangerously cold temperatures’ will enter the Upper Midwest and the Northern Plains and will take temperatures from 50 to almost 70 degrees below zero by Sunday. The Weather Service warned that the ‘wind chills colder than 50 below can cause exposed flesh to freeze in only 5 to 10 minutes.’ The storm is also expected to bring snow and a lot of slippery travel to Ohio and Tennessee valleys.
The death toll has reached to sixteen people who have died in the storm while a seventy year old woman suffering from Alzheimers, froze to death as she wandered away from her house in rural western New York. A worker at the Philadelphia storage facility also died after a huge pile of salt unloaded on him. Governors in both New York and New Jersey have declared states of emergency in their respective cities, urging residents to stay at home. ‘This is nothing to be trifled with,’ said the New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, ‘People should seriously consider staying in their homes.’
