   I’m guessing this isn’t part of the ‘increasing body of evidence’ I keep hearing so much about.

   Albedo can be a bitch when it turns against kooky alarmism.

   And no snow on the west coast.

   The Cascades, the Sierra, and a whole state named after snow- all snowless. But I guess that shows you we are just a small part of the big picture.

     Lots of snow coming to Washington and Oregon. How is that carbon tax working out for California?

       Good news for the Cascades! They had an early season and then nothing, grass was showing through on the runs. Hopefully the hose is turned back on…now we just need it pointed our way.

       Hell we don’t even notice a carbon tax…it must be a pittance on top of the already overwhelming taxation….California is sort of like a Stalinist theme park.

         Obviously they aren’t taxing you enough, because it isn’t snowing yet.

         In the 70’s there was the expression in Texas in reaction to the Arab oil crisis ‘freeze the Yankees’. Might a new moniker in response to the drought in California be ‘starve the nuts?

   Interesting…AndyDC asked me some time ago about how the snow was here in Southern Alberta. Added up the winter months (d,j,f), and over the 23 years of data that i have at my site, snow fall was basically on the increase over that whole timeframe(the odd up and down)…

     Same story here in the Sierra. Data back to 1970-

     All totally consistent with a warming climate (sarc).
