Look at the cold water off the US west coast. This is the shift in the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) that researchers have been taking about recently.

This cold water has been there for about 15 months now and has recently strenthened. Historically, this pattern can lasts for years or decades, so get used to slightly cooler than normal weather in North America for awhile.

Tell me about it....we in Western Washington are suffering a VERY cool spring....10 degrees below normal, I’d bet....it’s NOT fun.
