So Far Germany Seeing Coldest April In 104 Years, Second Coldest Since 1881, Snowiest Since 1986
Watts Up With That? ^ | 18. April 2021 | P Gosselin

It’s been a really frosty April this year across Central Europe. Germany so far has seen it’s second coldest April since records began in 1881...

Coldest since 1917..

April across much of Europe has been unusually cold, frosty and even snowy, and the media have been awfully quiet about it. The following chart shows the mean temperature anomalies with respect to the 1991-2020 reference period so far (up through April 17):..

With a mean temperature of 4.5°C for Germany, April so far continues to be the second coldest since 1881, according to German DWD national weather service records. Only 1917 was colder at a mean of 4.3°C...

Another cold blast forecast for next weekend..

And it likely isn’t going to change too much, as the ECMWF model is forecasting yet another unusual April cold wave with snow and frost for next week. A warm up is forecast near the end of the month, but that is still some 10 days out..

Most snowy April in 35 years..

One thing is already certain: For Germans, it will be the most snowy April since 1986..

The WO/GFS forecasts (left and right) see a continuation of the April winter with widespread ground frost from April 23. Extremely cold air with up to -12°C deviations from the old WMO climate mean 1981-2010 over Germany is projected on April 26 at 850 hPa. Sources: WO/GFS forecasts Tmin ground Germany and WZ/GEM forecasts TA850 Europe..

Northern hemisphere cooling continues...

Still seasonable where I live. Really no different than when I was a kid. I took a chance and put the garden in this past weekend. I should wait until May 5th, but I had the time a bit early this year. I looks like I just might squeak by. Tomorrow night supposed to be in the 30’s, just above freezing. After then it seems like smooth sailing, but certainly not unseasonably warm.

Their overall warming models predicted this. It’s all baked into their computer cake.

(That’s what they’ll say, anyway — they always do.)

And the Germans have either closed all or nearly all their nuclear power plants and are also closing coal powered electric plants. Thus they are left dependent on wind and solar power thanks to Commie Merkle.

No problem. Leftists have been lecturing me that colder temperature trends often IS a byproduct of globull warming... somehow.

The climate is changing. No chit. Cherlock. Happens all the time. Climate change is racist. Everything is racist. We’re hitting a point where the whole narrative is ludicrous. Ludicrous is racist!

Don’t remind me. Froze my ass off in Hohenfelds and Graf when in the Army that winter. But hey the benefit is that I don’t have a big ass.

RE: It’s “Global Warming”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s a very old term. Climate Change is the catch-all phrase today. It covers everything whether hot or cold.
