We have our pattern for the winter. A small Arctic spill by Alaska, and two big ones on either side of Greenland.
Last year, there was a huge spill through Siberia. The Greenland spillway was cut off, due to the Gulf Stream wobbling up some heat in the Greenland gap. That is wide-open now, and the UK will have fun with that. We may not have 'cold air blobs' coming down the middle of Canada, like we had all summer.
I don't see anything coming that will disrupt the pattern. Toronto should finally hit 30 below for weeks, and Huntsville 40 below. Europe should have long periods at 20 below.
This is the winter of my youth. I always went winter camping at 40 below.
ps. the big driver for all this is 'stagnant air'. That causes extreme heat and cold, like a northern desert. Our influencers are very good at exploiting this, by just concentrating on the heat, but the cold kills more.
