幾個禮拜前北美遭「北極漩渦」肆虐,新聞的部份我想大家都在電視、報紙上看到了。

不過很多新聞都沒有把「北極漩渦」的原文寫出來,這邊剛好來講一下

polar vortex (北極漩渦):  A polar vortex (also known as a polar cyclone, polar low, or a circumpolar whirl) is a persistent, large-scale cyclone located near either of a planet's geographical poles.
polar (北極): of or near the area around the most northern or most southern points of the earth.
順帶一提: polar bear (北極熊): a large, white bear that lives in the cold regions of the north.
vortex (漩渦): a mass of air or water that spins around very fast and pulls objects into its empty center.
