Temperatures in the US have been running in the negative range as a result of 'Polar Vortex' that has paralysed most of the states, plunging them deep in the historic freeze.
The historic freeze that "polar vortex" is pushing into much of the US is reportedly not just another winter storm and it is the coldest in 20 years in many areas.
Both the US and Canada side of the legendary Niagara Falls has frozen over, and it is a bizarre winter wonderland. See some of the pictures.

The frigid air and "polar vortex" that affected about 240 million people in the United States and southern Canada will depart during the second half of this week, and a far-reaching January thaw will begin, according to AccuWeather.com.

Roy Hodgson's hopes of getting Crystal Palace back on the front foot against Tottenham have been bolstered by the return of Wilfried Zaha for this evening’s derby. “He’s trained well this week,” said Hodgson.
Bruno Fernandes and Luke Shaw scored early goals in each half as Manchester United beat Man City 2-0 to end the Premier League leaders’ winning streak. Man City headed into Sunday’s Etihad clash 14 points clear of their rivals and off the back of a 21-game winning run across all competitions. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Red Devils, meanwhile, went into the game having drawn their last three games 0-0 - but it took less than two minutes for United to find the net in the derby.
Scott Parker declared his "immense" pride after Fulham pulled off a famous win over Liverpool at Anfield to boost their Premier League survival hopes. Fulham have lost just once in the last seven and are now only in the bottom three by virtue of having a goal difference three worse than Brighton.
