(Before It's News)

The Arctic is known for being extremely cold in the winter months especially in the middle of the ice pack. Winter temperatures can drop below −50 °C (−58 °F) over large parts of the Arctic.

As such seeing temperatures almost above freezing point in the Arctic circle was a bit of a shocker!

This surge in warm air was caused by the combined pull of 2 low pressure systems rotating counterclockwise. Those low pressure cells were following the trail of the Jet Stream. The Jet stream is responsible for this extreme event as it streched from the Mid-Lattitudes to the Arctic circle.
Such an extreme elongation is very rare, however it actually happened on 30 december 2015!
