The same weather system that spawned devastating storms across a large swath of the country over the weekend is expected to “explode” into a monstrous storm over Iceland by Wednesday... although big storms are common in the winter,  this particular storm will bring a surge of heat with it pushing temperatures at the North Pole up to 50 degrees above normal. By Wednesday morning, when the storm reaches Iceland and nears maximum strength, its minimum pressure is forecast to be near 923 mb, which would rank among the great storms of the North Atlantic Winds of hurricane force are likely to span hundreds of miles in the North Atlantic. The storm will contribute more misery to recently flooded areas in the United Kingdom as well.
