bluewave Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 The record cold and snow that the U.S. has been experiencing this spring was preceded by unusually cold and snowy conditions in Eurasia during December. This was their second snowiest December behind 2002 to go along with the cold there. When extreme cold and snow has built up in Eurasia during December since 2001, cold and or snowy patterns followed in the U.S..This year the most severe cold and snow relative to the means took a little longer than the earlier years to reach here. February was an intermediate month when we saw the coldest temperatures move from Siberia into the Arctic. It also happened to be one of the coldest Februaries in the Arctic in recent years.
