00:51 Huge Atlantic Storm Will Increase Temps Meteorologist Ari Sarsalari looks at a huge storm brewing in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean.

At a Glance Temperatures nearly 50 degrees above average in the Arctic region are expected.

This is at least the third intrusion of mild air this winter.

For at least the third time this winter, the Arctic region is about to experience relatively mild weather, provided this time by the remnants of one hurricane-force low-pressure system and a secondary low. Temperatures will still be below freezing at the North Pole, but will be nearly 50 degrees above average for early February.

Temperatures will rise above zero degrees Fahrenheit at the North Pole on Friday for a while, but the pole may not reach the melting point like it did back in December, when temperatures rose above freezing. Temperatures will rise into the 20s and perhaps low-30s near the pole. This is the third significant warm air intrusion since November to make it to the North Pole.

Several strong low-pressure systems early this week allowed subtropical air to waltz northward from the central Atlantic and across Iceland on warm and breezy southerly winds.

Winds as high as 90 mph, equivalent to a strong Category 1 hurricane, started to push the warm air northward on the east side of a strong low-pressure system that crossed the Atlantic on Sunday and Monday. A second, slightly weaker low-pressure system will approach Greenland mid- to late week, pumping warmth into the Arctic Circle.

Temperatures will not stay balmy for long since this arrangement of weather systems will dislodge by Saturday.

Sea ice coverage remains well below average, especially between the far north archipelago Svalbard and Siberia. Much of January saw record-low Arctic sea ice extents, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center . Abnormally high temperatures will not be favorable for ice growth and could even lead to ice loss.
