Answer 1

Since you don't tell us where you live, I have no idea what your weather is influenced by. However if you are British, it is true that, so far, the weather in northern Europe (I live in south Norway) hasn't been the best. The reason is: lows hanging over the British Islands. Why is that? Well, from my own experience, it looks like there is little motion in the lows due to little speed in the jet streams above us. It is those who make lows moving at about 20 to 25 knots eastward.

Another factor that I have seen previously in summer is that the high pressure that is nearly permanent over the Acores is not moving that far north as it use to be ... sometimes but not always. The same happened when I sailed ... about ten years ago, to the Isle of Wight. ... it was one of the most windy and cold summer I have experienced in my long sailing life.

Sorry, but there aren't any 'special' reason for the climate in northern Europe right now. Just the average variation between warm and not-so-warm summer. Maybe it will get better later.

So far we know, it has nothing to do with the global warming.

Answer 2

The Global cycle

The Northern Hemisphere become colder and enters into another ice age

This may be sped up by Global Warming but it is definitely not the cause, and there is no evidence to support this.

The planet has been going through change as always . Now it is sharping that change into another pattern . Because of humans short life span and the long pattern changes of the planet we only notice it at it's more dramatic points .

Answer 7

yeah a lot has to do with global warming. I heard that over the next decade or so, the countries/states that are cold now, will warm up and the ones that are warm/hot, will get cold...and so far that seems to be happening...
