14. No, we don't know there are *any* changes in the Gulf Stream
It is possible there has been a change in the Gulf Stream (collecting and analysing the data on it takes time), but nothing at all in this thread, or anything I've seen reported this year, indicates it.

What has happened is decreasing Arctic sea ice, which has altered the winds coming to north-western Europe, which is colder than usual (notice that, for instance, eastern Europe was warmer than average in November)
