Britain starts the Little Ice Age

 

There is no definition of Little Ice Age, and The Consensus ignores both it, and the warming period before it.  Both were many times stronger than the past warm cycle.  




This is the current wind condition bringing them the ice.  The mimic is broken up, but it shows successive fronts that are colder and colder.  The cold air is going in to the storm, which appears to be stationary.  


This wind pattern is so strong that it is starting to freeze the 'opening' just north of Britain.  You can see by the black, that it will soon be ice.  One of the signs of the Little Ice Age is that whole section becomes frozen.

It doesn't look to be over soon.  The strength of the pattern is such that it looks to last another week.  But these things can change quickly.  


For Toronto, the new pattern is that cold air glaciers are sneaking around the Great Lakes, the other way.  Looks to be another good one coming down.

APF FACT CHECK -- Although The Consensus is frozen at 2016, there is a side-note that they allow 'extreme weather' of all stripes.

ps.  NOAA went for 'middle third' on the November US report.  That's lower than 'upper half'.

pps.  the daily ice extent is hooking up because of this.
