North American temperatures break the 80's

 Using the Gulf of Maine as our big anal thermometer, we have broken the chart.

The 80's were horrendously cold for me.  We had just bought a new, but very old, house, and the pipes were freezing.  Toronto was regularly hitting 30 below.  That all stopped in the 90's.

Greenland is starting to get white again.  We need a full charge/discharge cycle to freeze Texas, and I don't see it.  However, I see this stagnant pattern hanging around.

This stagnation goes against the 'infinite energy' of the Polar Vortex.  They will have to invent some sort of stagnant PV.

ps with no definition of 'cold', they are trying to convince us that it was a warm winter.
