The ice is coming...soon. ;^)

Seriously, less than two decades would elapse in covering the North with the beginnings of an ice-cap.

In ten years, the government might be asking folks to let their cars idle overnnight. ;^)

It might take nothing more than one summer that doesn't happen. A few years ago here in Fairbanks it snowed fairly heavily right after Labor Day. Power lines were down, leaves froze in place on trees. Odd thing is, it never even once got above freezing again until spring, which took 9 months, and the leaves were still frozen on the trees all that time. The snow that fell right after Labor Day was still on the ground in May. Sure, it's Alaska, but even so it was a little extreme. It was interesting in the eventual spring how the new leaves would grow past the old ones still on the branches.

Funny but I pray for cooler weather. I just saw on our local weather forecast that it is to be 115 degrees in Phoenix next week. We haven't had a good soaking of rain in a very long time!
