According to meteorologists, the regions most affected by cold are the coldest of the last decades.

These extreme conditions, caused by a rotating ice-cold air mbad called a polar vortex, can lead to temperatures of -53 ° C in some places and cause serious risks for the population.

According to the National Weather Service (NWS), it is possible that a person could freeze in less than 10 minutes if it goes outside in such circumstances.

Since the beginning of the week, the cold front has killed 12 people in the country. The expectation is that the temperature reaches -40º until it starts to rise on Friday. Schools, transportation services and commerce have been affected.

This climate – which already affects tens of millions of people in the country and requires the cancellation of thousands of flights – has led to the declaration of emergency status in the states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois in the Midwest as well as in Alabama and Mississippi, located in the south and generally warmer.

Meteorologists predicted that "in Chicago, Illinois, this week would be colder than Everest and Antarctica.
