Cold Than Last Year Winter Outlook 2017â2018: Colder Than Last Year Overall, the long-range winter forecast for 2017â2018 shows generally colder temperatures than last winter for the U.S. and Canada but not colder than a typical winter, based on historical averages. As I write these words, there are no sunspots on the visible portion of the Sun, and solar activity is very quiet; this traditionally meant a cooling influence. So why isnât it colder than average? Other weather factors are at play. |
