Unraveling the Chilling Mystery: Exploring the Global Cooling Potential of Extratropical Cyclones
Global WeirdingCan extratropical cyclones force global cooling? Extratropical cyclones, commonly known as mid-latitude cyclones or simply “storms,” are powerful atmospheric disturbances that form outside the tropics. These weather systems are characterized by low-pressure centers and are responsible for a wide range of weather phenomena, including high winds, heavy rain or snowfall, and abrupt temperature changes. While
