"BRITAIN is set to suffer a mini ice age that could last for decades and bring with it a series of bitterly cold winters.

 

And it could all begin within weeks as experts said last night that the mercury may soon plunge below the record -20C endured last year.

 

Scientists say the anticipated cold blast will be due to the return of a disruptive weather pattern called La Nina. Latest evidence shows La Nina, linked to extreme winter weather in America and with a knock-on effect on Britain, is in force and will gradually strengthen as the year ends."

We may be about to find out just how good global warming has been.

Sounds like Britain and northern Europe are returning to the condition of over three hundred years ago.  Wine production ceased in those areas and retreated to Italy and southern France.  The Brits and Germans turned to beer for their tipple.  Not too unexpected!  New York and Washington vineyard may experience the same fate.  Too bad, I really appreciate some of the Finger Lake wines.  In the South, conditions will be better for wine. Just, don't plant the vines too close together -- phlox vinefera.

 

Good ice skating on the canals of Amsterdam.  Don't toss your overcoats, yet!
