To be fair, it does appear that the long range forecasts verified, and Europe generally had a mild winter. I believe most of the US did too (although there was one cold blast that broke many records.) For both to have mild winters is a bit unusual: Usually one is mild and the other cold. I’m not sure where the cold went - Maybe over water, or to Siberia (more so than usual.)
Perhaps Pooty has managed to offend God with his (Pooty’s) ridiculous assertions of protecting Christianity. The mild winter is God’s response?
(Oh, I know, that’s silly, but it’s less preposterous than a lot of the “Christianity” espoused by some of our Putin bots.)
At any rate, mild winters in both the US and in Europe surely took some pressure off the energy situation / prices.
Not silly, and you’re not the only one who had that thought. Your guess on divine intervention might be good.
