i wonder if this has anything to do with whats going on in the antarctic

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Younger_Dryas

In Western Europe and Greenland, the Younger Dryas is a well-defined synchronous cool period.[34] Cooling in the tropical North Atlantic may, however, have preceded it by a few hundred years; South America shows a less well-defined initiation but a sharp termination. >The Antarctic Cold Reversal appears to have started a thousand years before the Younger Dryas and has no clearly defined start or end;

Peter Huybers has argued that there is a fair confidence in the absence of the Younger Dryas in Antarctica, New Zealand and parts of Oceania.[35] Timing of the tropical counterpart to the Younger Dryas, the Deglaciation Climate Reversal (DCR), is difficult to establish as low latitude ice core records generally lack independent dating over the interval. An example of this is the Sajama ice core (Bolivia), for which the timing of the DCR has been pinned to that of the GISP2 ice core record (central Greenland). Climatic change in the central Andes during the DCR, however, was significant and was characterized by a shift to much wetter and likely colder conditions.[36] The magnitude and abruptness of the changes would suggest that low latitude climate did not respond passively during the YD/DCR.

 

Effects of the Younger Dryas were of varying intensity throughout North America.[37] In western North America, its effects were less intense than in Europe or northeast North America;[38] however, evidence of a glacial re-advance[39] indicates that Younger Dryas cooling occurred in the Pacific Northwest. Speleothems from the Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve in southern Oregon's Klamath Mountains yield evidence of climatic cooling contemporaneous to the Younger Dryas.[40]
