![]() ![]() During the competition, the weather becomes massively violent with intense winds and flooding rains. Meanwhile, Jack's son, Sam, (Jake Gyllenhaal) is in New York City for an academic competition with his friends Brian and Laura (Arjay Smith and Emmy Rossum), where they also befriend a student named J.D. As three RAF helicopters fly to evacuate the British Royal Family from Balmoral Castle in Scotland, they enter the eye of a very massive hurricane-like superstorm, that causes a temperature drop of -150 ☏ that freezes their fuel lines and rotors, causing them to crash and quickly freeze to death. President (Perry King), authorizes the FAA to suspend air traffic over the United States due to severe turbulence. Tokyo is hit by softball size hail it begins to snow in New Delhi and Los Angeles is destroyed by a group of huge F5 tornadoes that hit all at the same time. All over Earth, the climate system changes for the worst. Jack believed that the events would not happen for a hundred or a thousand years, but he, Frank, Jason, and NASA's meteorologist Janet Tokada (Tamlyn Tomita) build a forecast model with his, Rapson's, and Tokada's data. He calls Jack, whose paleoclimatological weather model holds reconstructional data of the climate change that caused the first Ice Age, to predict what will happen. Two buoys in the North Atlantic simultaneously show a massive drop in the ocean temperature, and Rapson concludes that melting of the polar ice has begun disrupting the North Atlantic current. Terry tells Jack that the melting of the polar ice caps has poured fresh water into the oceans and diluted the salt level balance, which has caused the temperature of the ocean currents to drop 13 degrees. At the conference, Jack meets Professor Terry Rapson (Ian Holm) of the Hedland Climate Research Centre in Scotland, who is keeping track of the world's ocean currents. Most of the diplomats, including the Vice President of the United States (Kenneth Welsh), are unconvinced by Jack's theory. Jack says that it could happen again in maybe 100 to 1,000 years from now if humans don't stop polluting the atmosphere. Jack found that 10,000 years ago, a global warming changed the earth's climate into the Ice Age. Jack presents his findings on global warming at a United Nations conference in New Delhi. The ice shelf suddenly breaks off from the rest of the continent, and Jack almost falls to his death. Sanders) and Jason (Dash Mihok), drilling for ice core samples on the Larsen Ice Shelf for the NOAA. Can Hall make it? - Hall (Dennis Quaid) is a paleoclimatologist who is on an expedition in Antarctica with two colleagues, Frank (Jay O. Hall then learns that his son is in New York City so he tells his son to stay inside till Hall can get to him, but the weather gets worse. While everyone in the North should do their best to survive the cold. But when things get worse, Hall advises the President to move everyone from the Southern part of the continent further South till the weather improves. The man who works at weather monitoring station sees that the planet's climate is drastically changing and calls Hall who is surprised and tries to inform the government, but the Vice President again doesn't believe him. Since Hall's rants means that certain industries, who are supporters of the administration, could be in trouble, he shoots Hall down, But another scientist thinks Hall might have something so they talk. ![]() He tries to air his suspicions at a conference which the Vice President also attends. Jack Hall, a scientist who studies the planet's weather patterns, thinks that because of global warming, a new Ice Age is imminent. ![]()
