America is bracing for a brutal Arctic blast with dangerously low temperatures as a massive polar vortex smashes the country.

Chicago alone could face -20 to -30-degree temperatures next week in a blizzard on the Windy City, according to USA Today.  'Your face will fall off at these temperatures,' meteorologist Ryan Maue said on X.

The Northern Centric area of the US will feel a blast of arctic air with the National Weather Service saying: 'Dangerously cold wind chills and air temperatures will lead to cold weather headlines.'



On top of that, the NWS also warned about a coastal storm that would 'threaten the East Coast from the Mid-Atlantic to eastern New England'.

Cold air from Western Canada will cause very cold temperatures that will be 40 degrees below average for February in the central part of the country.

Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota will also get the brunt end of the cold front in the beginning of the week, according to USA Today.

'The coldest mornings will be Monday and Tuesday when life-threatening wind chills are likely,' NWS in North Dakota said.

The cold front will reach the Great Plains and parts of South as low as Atlanta next week.
