Winter? What winter? We haven't had one here in central Europe this year.
And that last year was a joke compared to the winters we had when I was a kid...

I'm not sure about the gulf stream but I don't think it can cut out within two years. We are talking here about global climatic changes. That takes time and two years are definitly not enough. it's not like we are getting one fast blast like with a nuke and then everything is changed forever. It takes several years, maybe decades.
