The massive disruption of the polar vortex began just as a solar superstorm impacted Earth, triggering a G5-/G4+ geomagnetic storm and a S4 radiation storm – the strongest since 2003. These sort of ultra space weather impacts can alter the Earth geophysical system for not only week and months after the event but even years… The space weather impact amplified the disruption to the polar vortex, and is likely to continue increasing the volatility of those arctic atmospheric jet streams. Geophysicist Stefan Burns reports on the big picture and provides a generalized weather forecast for the rest of winter and spring this year (2026).
