There are some unusual temperature fluctuations in both directions, but the north exists, too. Most fluctuations have been more toward cold and are likely to be that way, until sometime after the current extended solar minimum is passed. For now, we’re in the period of the usual solar max, so it’s likely to get much colder at times over the next 9 years or so, at least.
Yup. Its January/February cold here now and that sucks.
We’re at about 10 degrees right now but we’re getting a moderating effect from the great lakes till they cool down.
