Changeable This Week and a Look at THE POLAR VORTEX

By Elliot Abrams, AccuWeather chief meteorologist

This video explains how this week's weather should unfold and gives some hints about next weekend.

When the weather headlines screamed about the Polar Vortex last winter, I told you that the polar vortex could be found on the weather maps year-round. The issue was how large it was and how it was oriented. This map shows the polar vortex at the 500 mb level last night (June 8, 2014, 8 p.m. ET). It was centered close to the North Pole and has a very limited extent (as we expect during the warm season).
