"A shift of the polar vortex will be at the heart of the brief cold blast in the Northeast," AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said. In this case, a small lobe of the feature ...
The geographic poles are defined by the points on the surface of Earth that are intersected by the axis of rotation. The pole shift hypothesis describes a change in location of these poles with respect to the underlying surface – a phenomenon distinct from the changes in axial orientation with respect to the plane of the ecliptic that are caused by precession and nutation, and is an ...
During the 2014 January polar vortex, more than 20 people across the country died from the cold as places like Georgia — which rarely see serious cold — dealt with lows under 10 degrees ...
NPOESS was a tri-agency program led by an Integrated Program Office (IPO) containing staff from the US Department of Defense, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and NASA. [1] NPOESS was to be operated by the NOAA/ National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) / NPOESS Program Executive Office Flight ...
The Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) is the latest generation of U.S. polar-orbiting, non-geosynchronous, environmental satellites. JPSS will provide the global environmental data used in numerical weather prediction models for forecasts, and scientific data used for climate monitoring.
Boston picked up 23.8 inches of snow during the storm, 23.6 inches of which fell on Jan. 29, alone. That remains the heaviest calendar-day snowfall in Boston records dating to 1891, according to ...
NASA GISS temperature trend 2000–2009, showing strong arctic amplification. Polar amplification is the phenomenon that any change in the net radiation balance (for example greenhouse intensification) tends to produce a larger change in temperature near the poles than in the planetary average. [1]
Couric took over Norville’s hosting spot in 1991 and remained on Today through 2006. She recalled her decision to leave the show in her 2021 memoir, Going There, writing, “By 2005, I was at a ...
