It looks like the UK will see a cold easterly wind next weekend - uncertain for how long. However, the intensity of the cold air over Europe is paltry compared to the ‘beast from the east’ in Feb 2018. I suspect many tabloid outlets won’t include this fact in their ‘stories’.

Fixed it: --> last year, the U.S. sold more educational services to the rest of the world than it sold in natural gas and coal **combined** --> every $1 of research funded by NIH generates $2.56 in economic activity --> more than 1.1M foreign students come to the U.S. each year
