It is Only Going To Get Colder Brace Yourself

Published on January 13, 2025

Two Sundays ago, we read that tens of millions of Americans were bracing for a massive winter storm, which was forecast to bring the heaviest snowfall and coldest temperatures to parts of the country in over a decade. As the storm moved east, around 60 million people across 30 states from the Plains to the mid-Atlantic were under weather alerts, with a developing low-pressure system threatening heavy snow and crippling ice over the next three days. This weekend it’s the southern United States that is going to be clobbered.

Also, that Sunday, we read that there is no rest for the snow-weary downwind of the Great Lakes as another multiday lake-effect snowstorm continues to bury towns in several feet of snow through Sunday before finally winding down overnight. Camden, New York, east of Lake Ontario, reported 65 inches—more than 5 feet—of snow as of Sunday morning.

This past Sunday we read that another massive winter storm is expected to pummel portions of the central and eastern United States this week, bringing with it heavy snow and strong winds that will likely complicate travel and knock out power. Local governments almost everywhere in America are spending a fortune to clean up the snow and its not about to stop.

But never forget those who insist on manmade global warming have said many times that there would be no more snow. No ice in the Arctic, oceans flooding costal cities everywhere, and civilization destroyed from unendurable heat. This was all supposed to have happened already. Yet supposedly millions still believe these last few years are the warmest in modern history. Yet take head, and brace for extreme cold is inbound for the United States with 56% of America already under snow. Starting January 18 a powerful Canadian high-pressure system combined with a Siberian Express is expected to crash into the Rockies bringing incredible cold to most of the North American continent.

This comes after the Arctic Blast that descended into much of the United States in the New Year, potentially leading to the coldest January in over a decade, particularly for the east. Temperatures are expected to plummet some 20F below average (or more), with wind chills dropping below zero in the Midwest and freezing conditions extending as far south as Texas, the Gulf Coast, and Florida. It sure does sound like manmade global warming if you are one of the rare birds that trusts the government and the mainstream press.

Folks up early in D.C. last Monday witnessed heavy snowfall at 2 to 3 inches per hour. Snow is piling up across the mid-Atlantic, causing 1,800 flight cancellations by Monday, while a snow emergency was declared in Washington, D.C. This past weekend a powerful winter storm sweeping the US South has grounded more than 3,000 flights, halted passenger trains and threatening the region with heavy snowfall.

Extreme readiness for cold and snow is critical for survival in many northern hemisphere areas. It is becoming routine to read in the mainstream weather news that temperatures are running 15 to 25 degrees below average.

BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager overseeing approximately $11.5
trillion in assets, has decided to withdraw from a climate pact backed by the
United Nations (UN) that advocates for aggressive de-carbonizing of the economy

In England

In England, conditions are so bad that almost all airports have had to close, and the government has issued alerts that rural communities could be cut off. The UK’s coldest night of winter so far was recorded in the UK, with temperatures in northern Scotland plunging to -13.3C (8F), as per Met Office data. UK Braces For -20C (-4F)

Dalwhinnie, near the Cairngorms, is forecast to hit -18C (0F), with the likes of Altnaharra possibly dipping below -20C (-4F). If reached, this would be the coldest January temperature recorded in the UK since 2010. If breached, it could mark the coldest January 9th/10th since 1982. (The nation’s record Jan low is the -27.2C (-17F) logged in Braemar, Aberdeenshire, also in 1982.)

Dr. Agostinho Sousa of the UK Health Security Agency warned of serious health risks for the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions, including heart attacks, strokes, and respiratory issues. “Check on vulnerable friends, family, and neighbors during this extreme cold,” he advised.

The UK has no coal plants left, gas continues to be demonized and curtailed, nuclear likewise, and the grid is dead weak as a result—all while politicians trumpet a “clean grid” by 2030. Yesterday’s reality check: gas supplied 55% of the nation’s power while wind floundered at barely 8%, with solar negligible at around 1%.

Europe Plunges Below -30C (-22F), Sees Heavy Snow

Europe’s cold wave has indeed been fierce, with thermometers crashing below -30C (-22F), and snow registering in the feet. Temperatures tanked to an extraordinary -33.9C (-29F) on Saturday in Jura, as France experienced one of its coldest days in history, according to a report by The Connexion, citing Météo France. The reading, registered in the commune of Mignovillard, came close to the national record of -36.7C (-34F) set in nearby Mouthe, Doubs, back on January 13, 1967.

The deep freeze triggered high-level alerts in 30 departments across France. In Paris, authorities escalated the ‘cold and ice plan’ to level two, enforcing a 20 km/h (12 mph) reduction in speed limits on major roads from 17:00 to midnight on January 5.

Global temperatures, as per the satellites, fell 0.02C last month,
continuing the downward trend that started back in September 2024.

Gov. Hochul of New York— who recently approved a controversial law that will force oil, natural-gas and coal companies to pony up $75 billion for carbon emissions allegedly contributing to global warming — has taken at least 30 flights aboard private jets since 2021, state Board of Elections records show. The $415,000 tab was picked up by her campaign committee.

Kashmir is enduring an Unforgiving Winter

Night temperatures have plummeted to historic lows, with Srinagar recording -8.5C (-16.3F), the coldest December night in nearly a century, and Gulmarg enduring -13C (8.6F). In Shopian, nights have hovered around -10C (14F) for days. Like much of India, the central state of Madhya Pradesh is in the grip of its coldest January in years.

Pachmarhi recently saw 0.2C (32.4F), with Bhopal hitting 3.6C (38.5F)—its coldest low in more than a decade. A cold day alert has been issued for nine districts in Madhya Pradesh alone, with icy winds sweeping 20 regions, including Gwalior and Morena.

Bailing Out of Climate Change

The climate policy retreat is accelerating as Citigroup, Bank of America and Morgan Stanley this week joined an exodus from the Net-Zero Banking Alliance. Automakers are slowing their electric vehicle production plans. Utilities are extending the lifespan of coal plants to keep the lights on. Off-shore wind projects are being canceled because they aren’t economic.

Welcome to Germany’s green economic miracle. The year is 2025! Germany’s so-called Energiewende (transition to renewable energies) has had one unmistakable result: Germany now finds itself rapidly nearing the brink of a third world country where the power supply is no longer reliable and brownouts becoming more and more a daily routine.

What’s happening is the opposite of what was once promised by the know-it-all climate wise men: “Green energies would lead to a clean and prosperous country that would be the envy of the world.

Meanwhile Europe’s gas reserves have plunged to their lowest in seven years due mainly to harsh winter weather and ‘green ideals.’ Colder-than-average temperatures, especially in NW Europe, have driven up heating demand, rapidly depleting storage levels. Reserves are now at 70.3% capacity, down 15% from last year and at the fastest consumption rate since 2016.

The UK has only 54% of its reserves left, with similar levels in Denmark, France, and the Netherlands. Gas prices on Europe’s TTF market have surged 20% since December, driven by the end of a Russian transit deal, Norway’s LNG plant shutdown, the ongoing political unfavoring of gas, and rising demand. Goldman Sachs warns that persistent cold weather, as forecast, could push prices to €63–€84 per megawatt-hour, straining efforts to replenish reserves before next winter, even with ‘help’ from the US via increased exports.
