Possibly really bad news.

I personally would not claim it is not possibly due to man's activities.

If this happens, it would put Europe in a deep freeze, I read about this several years ago and then I had read it had been dispelled as a possibility.

Yeah, I read about this a few years ago too. Might even be a post on it here on this thread, but I'm not digging.

Got down to 14 over nite with 30 mph winds making it below 0.Mercury says 18 now but with gusts much colder.But sunny and got damn near sun blind shoveling just came in I feed the birds during extremes- Robins pretty smart all the others fly away until I leave.they have it figured out that this lump is no threat and will actually reward them with 1st dibs.The one robin actually approaches me when I come out - pretty cool

Robins?!?!?

it's springtime in Ohio!!!!
They don't really migrate they just move to the woodlots most do anyway and eat dried /frozen fruit or seeds.In the nice weather they eat insects and worms.But with around 3 feet of snow they couldn't dig that deep even if they were available.When I volunteer over at the food pantry people leave the whole dates/prunes for the most part - if they are past date I take them home and chop them up raisin size and the Robins love them.

Turns out you can also feed birds dry rice - which i always thought was deadly because of it expanding but not so. As the guy from an Autubon avian site had said rice grows in the wild tell that to those rice farmers who lose a sizeable % to the Birds every year.The rest they lose to Budweiser ;D . They did some experiments and rice expands no more than 33%,wet birdseed expands to 40 %
