Winter 2017 could be the coldest in over 100 years
According to weather experts, winter 2017 could be the coldest winter in Europe in over 100 years and even some Asian countries will face harsh winters.
Weather experts say the winter of 2017 in Europe, Russia and Ukraine could be the coldest in over 100 years. Even as late as September 2017, temperatures in Ireland could drop below zero degrees Celsius, which is very unusual.
However, experts say that the cause of this strange phenomenon is not global warming, but the beginning of a new weather cycle. In the coming years, winter will see more rain than snow, but according to experts, frost is the most dangerous thing.

European countries and some Asian countries may face harsh winters. |
According to weather experts, November 2017 will be very cold and by December 2017 the temperature will be continuously at minus 5 degrees Celsius. Also in winter 2017, the Sun's activity will decrease similar to what happened in the 1950s, making winter 2017 colder than previous years.
Not only European countries but also Asian countries will have to face cold winters, even countries that have not faced winters with very low temperatures for decades, according to Briton expert James Madden.
He also said that Europe is experiencing the last warm days of 2017 and that in October 2017, autumn will suddenly disappear and give way to winter. “Rain, snow, strong winds and low temperatures. Prepare warm clothes and stay home if possible. Winter may be long,” the expert said.

Winter 2017 is forecast to be much colder than previous years. |
Experts explain that the reason for the prolonged winter of 2017 is that the temperature in the Pacific Ocean suddenly increased by 1 degree Celsius. This led to the formation of large polar cold winds, which swept down to Europe.
Over the next few months, these cold winds will sweep across the entire European region and temperatures in January and February 2018 in some areas of the 40th parallel North latitude are predicted to stabilize at minus 25 degrees Celsius.
