    "How Did Europe Freeze As North Pole Warmed Up?" ...
    The polar vortex is a low-pressure system that, as its name suggests, ordinarily rests over the North Pole. (There is also a polar vortex over the Antarctic.)
    When it behaves normally, the polar vortex helps trap cold air in the Arctic.
    “It’s locking in that cold air at the high latitudes in the Arctic region,” Dr. Cohen said, comparing the polar vortex to a dam holding back the frigid arctic air from the rest of the Northern Hemisphere.
    But sometimes that dam bursts as the polar vortex weakens and allows cold air to escape the Arctic to more temperate climes. This has always happened from time to time, but a growing body of research suggests that because of climate change the warming Arctic is weakening the polar vortex.

    Erwärmt sich die Stratosphäre plötzlich sehr stark, wie im aktuellen Fall, schwächt sich der Polarwirbel ab. In manchen Fällen spaltet er sich auch in zwei Äste, ein so genanntes Splitting, bricht komplett zusammen oder die Kreisströmung dreht sich um.

    Beim Polarwirbel handelt es sich um ein stabiles System von Westwinden, die um den Nordpol kreisen. Zwar gibt es immer wieder Ausbrüche des Polarwirbels – doch eine Teilung ist selten.

    If this is a relatively straightforward translation pair, perhaps it could be added, since it's currently in the news again.
