Therefore the current powerful Santa Anna winds must be a confirmation of Global Cooling !!
Thats cool.
We are in a very unusual climate pattern this winter. The big long term oceanic trend has been cooling due to the longer and weaker then normal previous solar minimum. The recent short term trend however in the atmosphere right now has been increasing energy due to the solar activity increasing because we are entering maximum. So we have a solar energized atmosphere that is cooling due to oceanic trends. Could be a wild ride this winter. About as cold as last winter or slightly colder, but with very strong and energetic storms.
