Looking ahead there is no immediate end to the distinctly un-summery conditions. So what is going on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any spring warmth was hard to come by. After a cool April, very warm weather was distinctly lacking in May. Nowhere reached 24\u00b0C until the month was nearly over, on the 27th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, that theme changed dramatically in June. Temperatures soared to 32.2\u00b0C, with a heatwave being declared in many places and becoming the warmest June on record which, according to the Met Office, bears the \u201cfingerprint of climate change\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was all change again in early July with low pressure setting in, and staying put. While much of Europe sweltered in a blistering heatwave the UK sat under cool, wet weather which looks set to stay for the first part of August too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>India<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/news\/india\/cold-wave-january-2023-going-to-be-the-coldest-year-in-the-21st-century-2023-01-12-838584\"><strong>Is January 2023 going to be the coldest year in the 21st century?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There may be no relief from the ongoing spell of cold wave with minimum temperatures hovering below normal limits at most places, reports suggested. If a weather expert is believed, it has been predicted that temperatures in the plains are going to dip as far as -4 degrees Celsius next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Large parts of north India are still reeling under numbing cold with the mercury remaining below freezing point at most places in Jammu and Kashmir, while dense fog in the early hours of the morning hit road and rail traffic movement. Cold wave conditions abated in Delhi due to a fresh western disturbance affecting northwest India, even as a dense layer of fog lowered visibility to just 50 metres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuweather.com\/en\/winter-weather\/northern-india-braces-for-coldest-weather-in-years-as-dense-fog-poor-air-quality-linger\/1466801\"><strong>Northern India braces for coldest weather in years as dense fog, poor air quality linger<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"272092\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=272092\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/image-244.png?fit=632%2C355&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"632,355\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image-244\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/image-244.png?fit=632%2C355&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/image-244.png?resize=723%2C406&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-272092\" style=\"width:758px;height:426px\" width=\"723\" height=\"406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/image-244.png?w=632&amp;ssl=1 632w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/image-244.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new wave of cold weather is headed into northern India and could drop temperatures to levels not seen there in over three years, according to AccuWeather forecasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cold weather shot will be the latest, and perhaps most significant, of many recent waves of chilly weather that have also led to travel-disrupting dense fog and poor air quality over parts of the Indian subcontinent since late December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The temperature in New Delhi, the capital city of India and home to more than 18 million people, has the potential to drop as low as 2 degrees Celsius (35 degrees Fahrenheit) on Sunday night and Monday morning. While the record low for this coming Monday of 1.3 degrees Celsius below zero (29.7 degrees Fahrenheit) appears safe, it will be well below the average low of 6 degrees Celsius (42 degrees Fahrenheit) for the date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Temperatures at this level would be the coldest readings in New Delhi since December 2019,\u201d said Nicholls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of the cold wave, the IMD has issued a cold wave warning for Sunday and Monday for the northern Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi and Rajasthan. The warning was issued to give residents advance notice of a level of cold that could adversely impact human health and property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Canada<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.severe-weather.eu\/long-range-2\/spring-forecast-2023-la-nina-winter-pattern-extends-jet-stream-anomaly-united-states-canada-europe-fa\/\"><strong>Spring forecast 2023: The La Nina Winter pattern is forecast to extend as we head into Spring despite the breakdown of the cold ocean anomalies<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spring season 2023 is nearing, with forecasts revealing the jet stream pattern over the North Pacific and the Atlantic to be influenced by the diminishing La Nina. A high-pressure system in the Pacific will define the weather patterns over North America, with a potential Stratospheric warming event playing a role early in the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cold ocean phase in the equatorial Pacific is already in breakdown mode. It is expected to decline rapidly towards early Spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, despite the breakdown of these cold ocean anomalies (La Nina), its influence can still persist in global weather circulation. Long-range weather calculations also see this, extending the La Nina jet stream pattern from Winter into Spring 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img
