One of the theories behind the last ice age was rising temperature stopped the ocean currents that circulate heat. Its one of the possibilities scientists predict. We might all have to get used to snow.
Interesting.
I simulated a couple of ocean models a few years ago and this was indeed the result in some of them. But given those models were correct, it also may take a "few" more years.
Given the rate climate extremes seems to ramp up and previous records are beaten every year, some few more years from now on appear conceivable and it's quite fast for such an evolution from previous and well known climate models.
When pondering dramatic climatic events that scientists tell us occured in the past, I wonder if it could be fast enough to have again effects like freezing mammoths grazing, grass and babies suddenly frozen in their bellies. It seems Earth experiences cycles regularly, to such an extent that life is forced to acclimate quickly between cycles to its new surroundings and climate, engendering the vast biodiversity we know, with a lot of live and extinct species.

For those who are interested in some new scientific insights regarding the North Atlantic heat circulation, I recommend the following article, which was published a few weeks ago http://advances.sciencemag.org/content/ ... 01666.full

I've seen snow only 3 times in +30 years, south of Spain.

This picture turn my mind! Wow! That's awesome! Are are a professional photographer? I'm just learning and that's pretty hard to me to get such shot. But I'm trying, I wanted to participate in the Photo contest with a winter landscape, but I see that you ca do it better. It called something about "frozen water", I don't remember exactly, but you find it here: https://www.voubs.com/online-contests/active I upload here sometimes photo for the contest, I haven't won anything yet, but it's free to participate and who knows.
And how looks winter in my town.
oh no sry if it wasnt clear: this was in a local newspaper about snow in greece (where op comes from iirc) ^^
i would kill to live there though. looks like a dreamy landscape
