Klimakalypse
Der Winter wird vielleicht richtig lustig.
Neulich hieß es ja, dass die Meteorologen einen sehr milden Winter erwarten, lauwarm geradezu. Die Vorhersage könnte sich womöglich schon erledigt haben.
Ein Leser meint, dass da auf Twitter einer herrlich gruselige Gruselgeschichten verbreitet:

The current Arctic cold bubble is super charged with ice cold air of -84C in the core (left picture Dec 1, 2022), 15% colder than last year ( right picture Dec 10,2021). The integrated total is 25% higher, which will shape up in a mega winter. pic.twitter.com/Bv1BB9PlfD— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 15, 2022
The reason why October/November has been so warm was that the polar vortex is extremely strong and soaks up a lot of warm air from the oceans. This sweeped the continents with warm air travelling to the Arktis. This warm air is now cooled down in the Troposphere to -84C. #natgas

As Dec 5, 2021 is the earliest picture from last year I have in my archive I have compared it with Nov 16, 2022 and it shows clearly that this year the Arctic bubble is much colder than last year, despite 21 days earlier than last year. pic.twitter.com/sBfo7sqXQX— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 16, 2022

Another sign of the frigid conditions in the Arctic is the looming freeze off of the Barents Sea (yellow circle).Due to the Golf Stream this Sea is ice free most of the winters, yet this year it could be frozen. This coincidences well with Arctic conditions in Scandinavia pic.twitter.com/15fq8uRunH— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 17, 2022

I could find some November data from last year. This shows clearly that there is an huge difference between the Arctic bubble this year and last year (Nov 10,2021). The 21 bubble is still in its infancy as a large tail signals high rotation speed.The 22 is mature and big. pic.twitter.com/uQFWUVEbMC— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 17, 2022

As many think current temperatures are extreme, the forecast for Dec 5 looks even more extreme. Average temperatures 8C ( 35F) are coming deep down to Louisiana and Texas, the rest of the US on average deeply below zero C ( 30F). pic.twitter.com/ijZjq6S1Uc— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 19, 2022

It is interesting to see how the Arctic bubble develops over the course of the winter. In Nov (starting from left) when temperature differentials are high, a fast rotating yet small super nova, going on its top strength end of Dec and finally disintegrating in late Jan pic.twitter.com/nzTIxUqUEe— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 19, 2022

This is Germany in the midst of November. We have not seen these November pictures for decades.https://t.co/hBXI5kA9uV— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 19, 2022

The Arctic bubble continues to cool down at record pace, now -84C end of Nov. These numbers are rarely seen at its peak in December. As cold air is heavy and sinks to the surface, the bubble swallows warmer air from the oceans (red circle) and grows to a veritable monster pic.twitter.com/amwQL8pcgI— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 20, 2022

As I thought it can not get more intense, nature tops it again with a December 6 forecast beyond imagination. Barents Sea, Bering Sea, Grönland Street (red circle) are closed and poised to freeze off. Freezing line goes deep into the heart of the South (yellow circle). pic.twitter.com/11bglLzOg7— Heinrich Leopold (@LeopoldHeinrich) November 20, 2022
Übrigens auch das:
On Friday evening, extreme meteorologist @ReedTimmerAccu reported from Hamburg, New York, where the snow had accumulated to fifty inches.

Das könnte lustig werden.
