This cold outbreak in Texas is caused by the split in the polar votex. This break is setup in the middle of the country. Causing Arctic air to flow out of the upper atmosphere. This pattern is similar to what we see typically further east when it threatens Orange crops in Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No human would inhabit this earth if the climate didn’t change millions/thousands of years ago! Yet you can’t argue that fact with many, it’s hilarious!

It is called "sudden stratospheric warming" and despite Obama saying the science was settled, they still do not know exactly how it happens, unless one thinks words like, "could be", "might be" or we're not sure, exactly, are scientific conclusions? https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/enso/sudden-stratospheric-warming-and-polar-vortex-early-2021#:~:text=— Sudden Stratospheric Warmings (SSWs),breakdown of the polar vortex.

They don't typically freeze here at -40 but the right atmospheric conditions and wind and anything will ice up.
