Meteorologist Andrej Flis predicts that the winter of 2026/2027 could be marked by a very strong, potentially record-breaking Super El Niño. [1] Current models from ECMWF and NOAA NMME forecast a milder winter for Europe with above-average temperatures in December, January, and February. [2] Euronews reported on 2026-07-15 that a 17th-century historical model called the Century Calendar predicts heavy snowfall in Germany starting December 1st. [3] NOAA data recorded sea surface temperature anomalies exceeding six degrees Celsius above average in parts of the tropical Pacific, with subsurface anomalies reaching nine degrees Celsius. [4] The 100-year calendar, created by Abbot Mauritius Knauer in the 17th century, predicts that the first autumn frosts in Germany will occur around mid-November 2026. [5]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world2 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
