This story was reported by a Florida newspaper yesterday, claiming that we are short of snow along the Colorado Front Range. In fact, we are far above normal for the Front Range river basins.

Last year, Trenberth wrote this in early October.

And winter temperatures have been plummeting in Colorado over the last decade, at a rate of more than 40 degrees per century. As a cyclist, I am painfully aware of this change.

It had to be reported in Florida because people in Colorado have lived through it. And then there is Trenberth and the rest of NCAR! It is odd he seemed to have a sense of reality occasionally.

If this trend keeps up, y’all will have to change the state’s name to Cuddlerado, since y’all are gonna have to cuddle a lot to keep warm.
