Climate Change Defeating 'General Winter'?

Napoleon and Hitler both discovered that 'General Winter' (the bitterly cold conditions) was their most formidable 'foe', as they attempted to invade Russia. Climate change now seems to be countering 'General Winter's' potency (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-64158283?pinned_post_locator=urn:bbc:cps:curie:asset:6377518f-1869-40f9-a7a3-0c7d5fa66e53&pinned_post_asset_id=64158283&pinned_post_type=share). In recent times, a spate of record warm winters (the months of December, January and February) have been recorded in Europe. Winter heat records have now been smashed again, throughout the continent. National records were broken this year in Belarus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Latvia, Liechenstein, Lithuania, the Netherlands and Poland. Station records were also smashed in France, Germany and the Ukraine. In Bilbao (Spain), the temperature (25.1 degrees Centigrade) on January 1st 2023, was equivalent to the July average. Warsaw (Poland) was a balmy 18.9 degrees Centigrade. These elevated seasonal temperatures seem to partially account for the decline in global gas prices. Much less gas is being used to heat houses. These effects are not, however, universally beneficial. There is a shortage of snow on the ski slopes of Europe. Effects of the warming conditions on glaciers, may well also produce water shortages later in 2023. The thing about climate change, is that one can no longer rely on former trends.
