Reading the reports about the serious cold wave in Europe, I wonder wether the gulf stream (north atlantic thermohaline) has already declined enough to be a culprit for this kind of weather. I also wonder wether european media will make the connection…
from what i hear from my english friends (londoners and mancunians mostly) it is alright over there – around (+)10 degrees…. so the gulf stream still does its job, kinda. only the cold air from russia – where it is much colder, the weather came here in a highly softened form – was so immensely cold that the way over Poland wasnt long enough to calm it enough to stay in one-digit-minus-temperatures ;)
excuse my grammar/style… it’s usually better ;)
