All heat has left the Northern Hemisphere

 I would do another State of the Oceans, but that is really sad.  I'm not showing the ocean charts.

With our stagnant summer, you remember that the north had a lot of ocean warmth.  This was only skin deep.  All gone now.  The oceans are our great moderator.  Without them we have desert conditions.  Thus, we have a really warm summer, which the warmies are still going ga-ga over, but really cold winters, which they ignore.

Europe is still enjoying the remnants of the Gulf Stream.  Good for them!  

ps and the weather charmers are out in full force, predicting what has happened already.  They are stealing my lunge and recharge pattern, but that's old hat now.

This is interesting to read.  They never predicted this, but are jumping on the cold bandwagon.  The implication of 'cow theory' of the non-existent Polar Vortex, is that it will get warm again.  But they aren't saying that any more.  As long as they can get away with facile explanations and go with the flow, we'll never get rid of them.

ps OMG, the dog walk at -11C.  My one foot still aches.  I upgraded all the clothes, but now I have to go for the 40 below boots, and heavy gloves.  

ps and natgas is down.  Forecast calls for 'rinse and repeat', and they think we are in a warm phase.
