The story

Jack Hall, a paleoclimatologist for NOAA, drills for ice core samples in the Larsen Ice Shelf alongside his colleagues, Frank and Jason.

Rapson's team notices severe temperature drops in the North Atlantic, providing evidence that Jack's theory may already be coming true.

These cyclones reach temperatures below −150 degrees Fahrenheit (−101 degrees Celsius), which is what caused the royal family's helicopter crashes.
