The One on One Lessons Where You Learn Through Hands on CaressingU.S. weather pattern during Christmas week is going to be what forecasters call "highly amplified." This means that the jet stream, which separates air masses and steers weather systems, will be undulating sharply — with large northward bulges, or high pressure ridges, and deep dips, or low pressure troughs, toward the South.
For Christmas week, this jet stream configuration will allow Alaskans to enjoy an unusually mild holiday, while residents of virtually the entire lower 48 states (except Florida) experience a colder-than-average period.

That doesn't mean this is the polar vortex winter of 2013-14 redux, or even that many cold temperature records will be broken (in fact, Alaska has more record-setting potential with the unusually mild air there).

What's odd is that Alaska, which is America's only Arctic state, is missing out on a lot of this snow and cold. Many locations throughout the state are on their way to recording the warmest December on record, with temperatures climbing above freezing in Fairbanks, where the normal high temperature for this time of year is just 5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Residents of Barrow, also known as Utqiaġvik, have been experiencing the effects of missing sea ice cover this year, which exposes the shoreline to pounding waves and erosion from storms.
