In the real world, a sustained temperature difference would mean that moisture in the air would precipitate out. Is there a huge fog bank at the edge? If so, surely the fog on the inner edge of it would precipitate out and freeze, eventually building a wall of snow and ice.
Even though no winds are distributing new moisture into the interior of the Fimbulwinter effect, frost keeps forming. So, perhaps the wind goes pfft, but the moisture distributes itself evenly across the effect? So, then there would be no huge fog bank?
Where does the wind energy go when the wind just goes "pfft"? If the inner world is no longer safe for it, does it retreat to the gods' world? Is Orlanth's home extremely stormy during the Fimbulwinter? Or can Orlanthi outside of Dragon Pass even get there?
