“We are also forecasting some very low temperatures, we could see the record for October broken this year.” Changes in the structure of the ‘plasma layer’ around the sun will trigger wild deviations in the flow of the jet stream, he warned. This will encourage freezing cold air over the North Pole to spill southwards and edge into northern Europe – a so-called displaced Polar Vortex ...

This is really a story about nothing, "the weather will be cyclically normal."

Im really rambling about something I don't know anything about here based on parroting some local weather guys, Im sure one of our meteorologists will correct this...

This happens all of the time. The arctic oscillation is a wall of wind that keeps the extreme polar air trapped at the poles. On a frequent basis this beanie of arctic air that the earth wears has a portion of the wall weakened and deformed by the jet stream and the beanie becomes a beret. A couple of years back Canada and most of the northern tier states in The US experienced a winter under the slop of the beret. It was a little colder. I remember hearing a story not too many years back that the folks in Russia had gotten their turn. This year its Europes turn.

In other words, the normal weather variations that liberals insist don't happen is happening. Buy a warm hat.
