Sadly, highly volatile and/or extreme weather are actually a side effect of global climate change, which means we'll see more 'extreme colds' and 'record-breaking heat waves' over the ext couple decades as things get worseFound him:

While this is true, sun activity is at all time low and there was a solar pole shift in past week. Ocean currents are all messed up to and have been arguably for well over a year. Ask the UK as tidal surges flood them. Normally those were tamped down by circular rotating underwater currents conveyor.
I use to buy the whole global warming thing, now I am meh. Incomplete data today, plus the earth has been farm warmer and far more CO2 in times very long ago. More CO2 and heat = better growing conditions, higher yields... Symbiotic system. Could this have something to do with plant diversity and then largess of many things (i.e. plants, dinosaurs, etc.)?

Gore and Blood..... need I say more....
From the title, I thought its something related to DeepFreeze, the software.
Currently it's -13F outside for me and some pretty decent wind gusts.
Me too. On a related note, DeepFreeze is a lifesaver at schools. Students can TRY to fuck up computers all they'd like, but their changes are lost every time the computer reboots. Screw you viruses!
During my school days, when I was in 10th or 11th, our instructor installed deepfreeze and freezed the C drive in all the systems. Being an IE hater, I always cracked it to install firefox by resetting the BIOS date, which was a bug at that time and he finally gave up with it. Good old days
I was in the mountains for 2 days. It was 17 C at 1000 m high (3300 ft). Some 62.6 F says the converter. Snow resists only in deep valleys on the northern side of the mountain. No ski at all, even the artificial snow machines have big problems so we went in a 30 Km trip. There we saw tons of signs like: "Forbidden in the winter, avalanche danger !" and laughed hard while taking some suntan...
It should be like -10, -15 in the night and -3;-5 in the day, slightly positive in the full sunhine on the southern slopes.
That is some 5-14 F at the low. The average ! I have seen -30 many times over.
So, yeah, maybe the north pole moved to US and we are now in the austral summer...

Two things here come to mind:
1. Solar - sun activity has been very low to none recently. NOAA put out a coronal mass ejection warning for today and tomorrow. Meaning the behavior of the sun is about to CME launch directly at the earth. Big enough = horrible outcome on electronics and electric grid. Minor = space weather issues, radio interference, etc.
See: http://www.noaa.gov/features/01_economic/spaceweather_3.html
2. Supposedly, the electro-magnetic north pole moved on planet earth. From the north pole area down to say Vancouver, BC.
Yesterday it was warmer in Alaska than a big swath of the continental USA.
Well shit. A CME hitting Earth would SO screw stuff up.

Have a friend of the family in Alaska and she was laughing at me. Not cool at all. <_<

It is not even bad here, some people needed to be rescued by the army because snow was higher than the house:

Temperatures were not so bad, it is rather late int he winter and days are a bit longer so at most -25 were recorded.

The recent cold snap in NA is due to the polar vortex wobbling further south than usual due to the lessening of the temperature gradient in the arctic regions. It's basically a cyclone that's powered and kept in place by the differential.
