Even assuming the most optimistic scenario, snowpack in the Tahoe Basin will decline by half by 2100.

Instead of issuing the ski report for 2100, why don’t they issue one for 2010?
They won’t do that, because it will be shown that they have no idea what they are talking about. The climate game depends on issuing forecasts for long after the forecaster is dead.
i thought global warming made more snow
oh, that’s only when we get more snow
Have a look at Christy: “Changes in Snowfall in the Southern Sierra Nevada of California Since 1916”, Energy & Environment, Volume 21, Number 3 / July 2010.
No trends at all. Of course it may be that all happen by the end of the Century, or that Northern California is more environmentally aware, or may be it is the wrong kind of snow, associated to the wrong kind of CO2…
A bit of a problem is you have to convince La Niña to behave, and with kids you never know.
LOL. Well they have made predictions since 1998 that fell in the near to mid-future and you see how well that worked out for them (none came to pass, even with all the feverish adjusting to data). They now stick to long term, unverifiable to the living.
