Weakest Gulf Stream in 1,000 years could bring more 'extreme' winters to UK and Europe, says study

"A major mechanism for heat redistribution and crucial to the world's climate, an abrupt slowdown of the AMOC could trigger disruptions around the globe - including a sudden rise in regional sea levels, changes in the position of major rainfall and arid climate zones," say the research team.

The potential flood threat to the US could come as the northward flow of AMOC, which deflects water away from the east coast, is disrupted

Bullshit who knew about a gulf stream 100 years ago. Do people believe this shit.

We are on the same latitude as this place in Canada. The reason we have mild winters is the Gulf Stream, enjoy them whilst they last

That’s not good ☹️

So global cooling as predicted since the 70s

Could more extreme winters actually reverse the shrinking of glaciers?

Love snow. More the merrier. Causes right chaos.
