Global warming contributes to increased frequency and intensity of cold snaps due to changes in climate mechanisms.

Global warming from increased greenhouse gases is linked to a rise in the frequency and intensity of cold snaps in the northern hemisphere, such as the "Beast from the East" and Texas's 2021 cold spell. Climate mechanisms, like exchanges of energy and air masses, change due to global warming, affecting the intensity and duration of these cold spells. These events have significant societal impacts and require accurate forecasting to help society prepare for them.
