What is causing the recent spike in aviation incidents in 2023?

According to aviation expert Anthony Roman, the recent aviation incidents are occurring in difficult conditions that challenge pilots. Specifically, slippery runways with snow and ice, combined with high gusting winds influenced by Lake Ontario, have created hazardous circumstances. Roman notes an unusual pattern where aviation accidents seem to occur in clusters of three, though he acknowledges there's no formal study confirming this observation. Despite these challenging conditions, the combination of professional crew training and robust aircraft design has been crucial in maintaining passenger safety during these incidents.
