Tropospheric Water Vapor increases because of warming and is therefore a possitive FEEDBACK, amplifying warming from forcings.
Stratospheric Water Vapor and tropospheric ozone are FORCINGS, because they form (mainly) because of methane emissions.

Global warming acceleration in satellite observed lower-tropospheric temperature
We analyze accelerated global warming over 1981–2025 using satellite-derived lower-tropospheric temperature (TLT) data and examine its relationship to the pronounced warming observed during 2023–2024....

okay yknow what this is actually interesting, this part. this is factors that can influence propagation such as sunspots, the northern lights, tropospheric ducting, sporadic e-clouds in the ionosphere, all kinds of random stuff

For the layman, (relative) warm blocking in the Arctic “displaces” the tropospheric Polar Vortex, forcing cold southward into the US.

As the climate data for 2024 continues to arrive, I've updated my graphic showing changes in various climate indicators for the recent past, and the last 2000 years.
Most notable change is a big jump for tropospheric temperatures (TLT) in 2024.

🚨 Using IPCC methodology, the total greenhouse gas forcing in 2025 was 4.11 W/m²‼️
That's equal to a doubling of CO₂ relative to pre-industrial.
Why is this not clearly being communicated?
Why is the strong TROPOSPHERIC ozone forcing omitted?

These are greenhouse gas CO₂ equivalents from @noaa.gov, excluding the forcings of tropospheric ozone and stratospheric water vapor.
Including all greenhouse gases, we are already at ~560 ppm CO₂ equivalent.
That's a doubling from preindustrial levels.
Excluding the dimming of aerosols.

What’s driving the upcoming record breaking cold snap?? It’s widespread warmth (up-to 30F above normal) and intense blocking in the Arctic/ Greenland/N Canada.
That is squeezing out the (tropospheric) Cold Polar Vortex and forcing it south deep into the US… 1/
