It should be pointed out that this applies strictly to Europe. Something pretty similar could happen today if the Gulf Stream was diverted for some reason. London is north of the US-Canadian border.

I think there were changes in the Gulf Stream in the early 1960's and Britain did have a nasty winter in 1961/62 or was it 1962/63? You can find videos on it on YouTube. IIRC, when the Beatles toured England at that time, their van hit an ice patch and all their equipment shifted and landed on George Harrison, he was beat up for weeks.
