Both of these happened like 8 days ago and temperatures have risen above freezing in both places.
Give over, Boobhead, you have been snowed by Dubyne because you have a sick need for there to be a major ice age in the northern hemisphere.
FFS think for yourself some time.

that's all IQismissing ever does. He even starts threads on people to get a reaction from them, when they don't even know he or the forum exists. The guy is demented, and now he has found a soul mate in booby.

IQ is not my mate - he hates my guts more than you all do.
Stop making up fucking bullshit.
Correct I wouldn't delete entire posts and whole threads as Monk did to me.
All serious discussion would be encouraged.
All videos and scientific papers and links are welcome on the ice age thread
whether they be mainstream or not.
Try and post a rebuttal if you're smart enough.
everything is up for debate -
even Einstein's theories.

Monk - you wouldn't know -
you never watched the video and saw the sea ice off Massachusetts -
miles out to see - you could walk on it -
you never saw the snow in the Sahara desert - both new records -
you never watch and you never learn.
You've got a closed mind and you don't understand that science is always under scrutiny.
And tell Vulcan to stop brown nosing you -
he's a such a suck - he's probably after you for a bit of hanky panky.
Although it may seem like the sun is one of the few constants in Earth’s climate system, it is not. Our star undergoes both an 11-year cycle of waning and waxing activity, and a much longer seesaw in which “grand solar minima” give way to “grand solar maxima.” During the minima, which set in approximately once per century, solar radiation declines, sunspots vanish, and solar flares are rare. During the maxima, by contrast, the sun crackles with energy, and sunspots riddle its surface.
The most famous grand solar minimum of all is undoubtedly the Maunder Minimum, which endured from approximately 1645 until 1720. It was named after Edward Maunder, a nineteenth-century astronomer who painstakingly reconstructed European sunspot observations. The Maunder Minimum has become synonymous with the Little Ice Age, a period of climatic cooling that, according to some definitions, endured from around 1300 to 1850, but reached its chilliest point in the seventeenth century.
During the Maunder Minimum, temperatures across the Northern Hemisphere declined, relative to twentieth-century averages, by about one degree Celsius. That may not sound like much – especially in a year that is, globally, still more than one degree Celsius hotter than those same averages – but consider: seventeenth-century cooling was sufficient to contribute to a global crisis that destabilized one society after another. As growing seasons shortened, food shortages spread, economies unraveled, and rebellions and revolutions were quick to follow. Cooling was not always the primary cause for contemporary disasters, but it often played an important role in exacerbating them.

Many people – scholars and journalists included – have therefore assumed that any fall in solar activity must lead to chillier temperatures. When solar modelling recently predicted that a grand solar minimum would set in soon, some took it as evidence of an impending reversal of global warming. I even received an email from a heating appliance company that encouraged me to hawk their products on this website, so our readers could prepare for the cooler climate to come! Of course, the warming influence of anthropogenic greenhouse gases will overwhelm any cooling brought about by declining solar activity.
In fact, scientists still dispute the extent to which grand solar minima or maxima actually triggered past climate changes. What seems certain is that especially warm and cool periods in the past overlapped with more than just variations in solar activity. Granted, many of the coldest decades of the Little Ice Age coincided with periods of reduced solar activity: the Spörer Minimum, from around 1450 to 1530; the Maunder Minimum, from 1645 to 1720; and the Dalton Minimum, from 1790 to 1820. However, one of the chilliest periods of all – the Grindelwald Fluctuation, from 1560 to 1630 – actually unfolded during a modest rise in solar activity. Volcanic eruptions, it seems, also played an important role in bringing about cooler decades, as did the natural internal variability of the climate system. Both the absence of eruptions and a grand solar maximum likely set the stage for the Medieval Warm Period, which is now more commonly called the Medieval Climate Anomaly.

Does not relate it to the shape of the Jet Stream, of course, all the GSM doncha know. The snake oil is piled high and wide.
HBS Guy wrote:Observations show that as CO2 increases less and less thermal IR can escape to space and more and more thermal IR is redirected downwards, warming the lower atmosphere and surface. Those are the observed facts.
Climate models get the weather pretty much right.
Now Bobby:
1. The Maunder Minimum did not cause the Little Ice Age so why would a GSM, if one happened, cause an ice age now?
2. What astronomical observations indicate the next solar minimum will be a GSM?
Answer me those two questions. You should be able to, you have watched 500 compilations of lies and bullshit aka Dubyne YouTubes.

No, you don't.
I see no reason to treat you differently here to the way in which we are referred to at the sewer and where you are quite happy about it.
Forgiven.
