Massive storm swallows the Atlantic Ocean

A massive storm has swept the North Atlantic producing incredible satellite images.

Snow and cold weather that has plagued the US and Canada has also produced wild weather south of Greenland all the way to the Caribbean Sea.

Waves in the middle of the storm are said to reach 30 feet – similar to a category three hurricane.

It has even produced strong winds in the US, Canada and Europe dropping temperatures and making spring rather chilly.

The storm is expected to stay out at sea and then peter off in the next few days.

It will touch the edge of Western Europe before tapering off.
