This isn't just a local phenomenom but has affected globally in the northern latitudes north of 45 in seeing record lows not seen in decades.
The mini ice age starts here by David Rose:
This image of the UK taken from NASA's multi-national Terra satellite taken last week shows the extent of snow covering all of the country, a rare instance.
And then we have Rutgers University Global Snow Lab who reported that last month had the second greatest December Northern Hemisphere snow cover since records were started in 1966.

The thing is, no single climate model can ever predict when these arctic oscillations begin to "unravel" and spill its frigid cold contents southward globally across the northern latitudes with increasing frequency.
And then this is coupled with potential volcanic explosions like Mayon or even Redoubt located in Alaska to spew volcanic materials into the atmosphere reducing the amount of sun reaching the surface which calls for cooling for a few years a la Mt. Pinatubo.
And when the sun's energy output becomes less it produces less energetic magnetic fields which allows an increase in cosmic rays hit the Earth and see an increase in nuclei condensation that produces clouds and in turn means an increase in cloudiness and less sun to reach the surface which induces more cooling.

If anything, I'd rather see warmer weather than colder ones due to the fact that more crops are lost to cold weather events and the fact that less land are able to be used for agriculture production in the more northernly latitudes. Cold weather is just more harsher on the human population than hot weather since we have clouds, rain, and AC to help us keep cool versus cold weather where we can only depend on heaters to keep us warm.
