Ireland ‘Polar Vortex’ fears as weather phenomenon could trigger big freeze

Ireland is on alert for a potential weather change that could threaten a ‘Beast from the East’ style subzero freeze.

In recent days, some weather experts have sounded alarm bells over the emergence of a weather pattern that could bring another cold blast to the country.

Brian Gaze from The Weather Outlook, an independent weather blog, told Express: “Computer models are suggesting that a weakening of the Stratospheric Polar Vortex in the coming weeks could lead to an increasing chance of cold weather during February. “So if you see headlines saying the polar vortex is coming for us and going to bring a beast from the East then you can relax for now. It’s winter and cold can always return but warming in the Stratosphere doesn’t mean we are going to freeze down here.”

Meanwhile Met Eireann has, for the moment, ruled out any incoming cold blast, saying temperatures are set to remain above average up until mid-February.
