"Reglaciation begins either in January or 2019 [or maybe it's 2020 - I'd have to check my prediction]. Get your winter woolies and snow plough out". And to think some people wonder why I question yer sanity.

Europe, China, and a lot more besides are freezing and snow-covered today, with more to come. Amazingly precise predicting Mq. Right to the month by the look of it: <REGLACIATION begins either in January or 2019 [or maybe it's 2020 - I'd have to check my prediction]. Get your winter woolies and snow plough out. > And you even predicted it all back in 2008 and earlier. 40cm of snow due in the South of England. Brrr.... they are are not set up to cope with snow. Many deaths have already happened due to the reglaciation process. When snow is piled metres deep, things will get worse, and quickly. Snow reflects insolation so there will be rapid cooling [in addition to the usual northern winter cooling] which will mean snowfalls much later than normal in spring, and even more reflection, leading to a cool summer. With a lower dew point further south than normal, cloud cover will also increase, further reflecting sunlight and preventing warming. Fortunately, we should get away with it this solar low, but hopefully it will be a good warning leading up to the real threat in 2020 at the next solar minimum. Mqurice
