That looks brutally cold over there.

So much for global warming, though it does help to prevent you from freezing your a$$ off during those brutally cold winters.

If I remember High School geography right, which is unlikely, from Bucharest to Madrid is about 2800 miles.
It's ALL Southern Europe.
40 below is about the same whether C or F.
That's some extraordinarily cold weather under a global warming scenario.

We're pretty lucky. Leftists could have said that carbon emissions cause global cooling. But they flipped a coin and chose poorly.
Proof positive that God has a sense of humor.

weather != climate, but this sure is a riot, in my not so humble opinion, as the neo-luddites always pounce on any stretch of warm weather.

We often forget that the very most southern tip of Europe is right around the latitude of St. Louis Missouri. When the jet stream occasionally goes against them they get what Canada gets in a normal winter.

It is not their crops that are gonna kill them,it is the price of fuel to keep going under such weather.A tragic reminder that when winter sets in,in Europe,it sets in hard.

The “Little Ice Age”, roughly from 1350 t0 the mid 1800’s, plunged Europe and Asia into such a deep freeze, causing widespread deaths - up to 900 million - but, other than a cold year after a catastrophic volcanic eruption, like Krakatoa, North America evidently didn’t get it - Indeed, in the winter of 1620/21, The Pilgrim’s first one in the new land, only had a few snowfalls - the deepest no more than a foot. (And when my great and great great grandparents were carving their farms out in the Main woods in the late 1700’s, early 1800’s, they weren’t hampered with the catastrophic conditions of Europe/Asia.)
If, indeed, the earth is doing a little ‘reset’, resulting in the north pole shifting and turning the Europe/Asia side a bit further north along with it, then that would result in our half of the globe shifting a bit further south - the equator a bit closer to us.
I’m okay with that. ;o) - but I worry about the goracle gang. They’re probably already devising a way to blame the shift on us and tax us for ti.

Gadz! That cold snap brings back memories of the winter of '85 in Germany. I was stationed near Grafenwohr, and we were informed that the Siberian Express was coming through. Well, our Commander decided that it was a great opportunity for his troops to get some Arctic training, and sent us to the local training area. We sat out there for a week, freezing in those iceboxes we called "armored vehicles". One by one, the vehicle heaters gave up the ghost. When the mermited food arrived, it was frozen, even the coffee. By the end of the week, we had 1 vehicle that was still operational and we were all packed in the thing, trying to stay warm. Even then, you got so cold that your bones hurt.
Oh yeah, the commander never left the post. He stayed in his comfy digs until it was all over.
