Why so cold in eastern U.S.? Winter's 'wild card' in play - USATODAY.com

From USA Today

How, on earth, does one coalesce, what scientists refer to as known patterns of weather that produce warmer and colder winters, unpredictably, with the ‘consensus’ among other scientists that the cold isn’t really happening and that the climate is actually getting warmer?
Or for the flip-floppers, that the climate has been ‘disrupted’ in such a way as to replicate previously known patterns of oscillation in weather systems?
As asserted, a convoluted system of taxation on the less industrial of nations which  produce the least amount of questionably climate-altering emissions should fix it all just nicely, even if the nations which are the greatest producers of such emissions refuse to cooperate. We can just keep our climate to ourselves and that should do just nicely. Right.
Xenophobes might disagree.
