That'll be the Arctic melting.

I worked in an ice cream factory many years ago as a student,
and once or twice their walk-in freezers needed maintenance or
defrosting. During those times it felt noticeably colder and
damper just outside the freezer door than when the freezer
was at its normal low temperature.

The parallel should be obvious, but in case not I'll spell
it out. Counterintuitively, a melting Arctic produces colder
rainier (and, in winter, snowier) weather for a while. But it
won't last.
