Emergency Cold and Snow Health Alert
A massive storm system is set to span more than 2,000 miles and impact cities from New York City to Dallas. It comes as residents are preparing for a crippling freeze, with temperatures plunging into the single digits and even lower in the Northern Plains, where the wind chill could reach nearly negative 50 degrees. The extreme cold is sending natural gas futures surging by as much as 75% over the past five days, so staying warm will be expensive, and God help you if your electricity fails.
However, behind the storm comes the real cold, and it is going to keep coming, one arctic blast after another. So you need to take steps to protect yourself from the serious health risks posed by the cold. Every square inch of Russia is buried in snow, and though snow levels in America will, we hope, not get completely out of hand in most places, predicted ice storms can easily bring down power lines. The cold will not be easy to deal with, so be prepared as if a category 5 hurricane is bearing down on you and your family.
Next week, after the storm passes and the reality of the cold and snow sinks in, I will publish what I planned to publish today, which will be a complete report on the situation not only in North America but around the world. The mainstream news is all over the present storm, and what will happen after, so beware and take care, and good luck, for some it will be a matter of survival. Cold kills much more quickly and efficiently than heat.
