Coldest December in UK ! Yes it might well be a side effect of global

Apparently if it really is a side-effect of the ice-caps melting diverting
the gulf stream away from us, it's going to do a lot more harm to the
country's climate and weather system than we're currently seeing. :-/

That's one. Another is that the absence of sea ice in the Kara and
Barents Seas produces high-pressure systems that direct cold air over
northern Eurasia and Canada.
But last month may just be a result of weather, and nothing to do with
