1 dropped: The verb "to drop" means to physically fall from a higher to lower position, as well as to decrease or lessen. We often use the verb "to drop" to describe a sudden decrease in temperature. "Dropped" can be used to describe any sort of decrease, however. Example: Our sales have dropped over the last two months. In this report, Brent says that "the temperature has dropped below zero", which means that the temperature has fallen or gone below zero degrees.
2 global warming: "Global warming" is the term used to describe worldwide climate changes caused by increased emissions of gases into the atmosphere. Although increasing temperatures is the global trend, "global warming" can also be used to describe abnormal weather events and even decreasing temperatures in normally temperate areas.
3 pattern: A "pattern" is a trend or repeating feature. A "weather pattern" indicates a recurring trend with the weather, for example continuous rainfall near the equator.
4 freezing: "Freezing" describes the process of water turning into ice, or something (like weather) that is very cold. Example: Someone turned off the heat, so when we arrived home the house was freezing.
