Story appeared in the Daily Express a few days ago - on that basis I wouldn't get too excited;)

well anything is possible ........ the summer never happened after all,
its all based on reduced solar acvtivity

the article says more that 1 in 10 chance of colder winters

Surely 1 in every 10 winters on average would be a cold one anyway?

the last 2 were cold ... so were of the hook for another few years
found this bit interesting though

'One mechanism that suggests a link between the Sun and recent cold winters is ‘blocking’. Low solar activity causes extensive anticyclones that persist for several weeks in the Atlantic Ocean, causing the warm westerly winds to be replaced by cold, continental north-easterly winds. Depending on the position of the anticyclone, this can also lead to clear skies at night causing the land to cool even further'

Theres no business like snow business ..
