@deirdrebeth @weatherwest 's funny but I've had a lot of time on my hands recently (eye operation) and have watched The Day After Tomorrow again for the first time in ages. Re-evaluated it and decided it is a caricature. Yes, lots of utterly ridiculous stuff (for starters an all-American hero like Dennis Quaid would never drive a Honda) but I've been looking at AMOC trends and...yeah. Looks like AMOC is weakening, and has been for decades. And one particular drop coincided with the coldest UK December in 100 years, and a 13cm rise in sea levels in New York.

Western Europe could face winters as cold as Canada because of the impact of climate change on a key Atlantic current, known as the AMOC, which helps regulate our weather.
