I just released a new video which delves into a detailed analysis of the water situation in the west. This is a must watch for anyone who wants to understand the most serious imminent threat to the US economy.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Excellent work Tony. sorry but most of that went over my head. lol. a good take on your new video would be that weather varies a lot from year to year and decade to decade. did we burn a lot more coal one year over another that affected the climate? obviously not. mother nature varies on her own timetable. in the news tonight is female Olympic downhill skier Lindsey Vonn says a lot of the courses that she skied on in the past 30 years have lost a lot of snow. probably true. I’m just wondering where all that melting snow went because apparently it didn’t go into the ocean since the ocean levels haven’t changed at all in the past 40 years… according to a Danish engineer. I for one am not terribly surprised that the West is getting less Snow while the Northeast is getting more snow. that’s how it works and next year will be different. (fyi Central Minnesota Had record snow fall a few years ago and I told my son to expect less than average snowfall for the next couple years because that’s how it works…. we’re going back to average. excellent point Tony that taking more water out of the Colorado River than flows into it is not a good idea. hopefully one day cooler heads will prevail and we will build some desalination plants to help supply the dry Southwest with water like they did in Israel. we all know that Phoenix and Las Vegas had tiny populations 50 years ago to where they are now. they need a water supply other than the Colorado River… in my humble opinion.
I think Lindsay Vonn’s view of the world, like most people’s, has a set point that occurred early in her life. If, in her youth, there was a stretch of cold weather and heavy snow fall, then she thinks that is the norm. If in someone else’s life, it was warmer and with less snow, and then they hit a cold and snowy stretch later it life, for them it is getting colder-maybe even signalling a new Ice Age. Most people don’t look at the statistics. Lastly, what either of them thinks is not important. Generally speaking, for the last million or so years, the places they visit and love, were under ice 60-80% of the time (I’m guessing). For the long haul, 500 million years, there was very little ice, and life thrived. We all have to make a choice in life: Do we want to be selfish and throw a tatrum because the world might become more like it was for most of the 500 million years, or do we want to be unselfish givers of life to future creatures on this planet and “burn baby, burn” fossil fuels. I am a warrior for the biosphere, and I will burn fossil fuels!
Coal burning produces H2O and CO2…both needed for Plant life. Stop with the Global Warming garbage cuz Eddy Minimum is in control. Meaning its getting COLDER not hotter. Heck the Roman Era was hotter than now.
I’m just tickled tonight… I beat Arn and Conrad to the first post! I just wanted to add a little bit about Lindsey Vonn. I admire her talent and guts but it’s a little bit foolhardy to try and ski down a steep hill at age 41 at 80 miles an hour. I do hope she makes a complete recovery from her broken leg. anyway… her comments on disappearing glaciers and snow need to be examined. she’s way too young or uninformed to know that we had something called the little ice age that ended in the mid 1800s so yes there’s been a lot of melting going on. it just seems to me that young people just don’t know that much. public education? lol. a very smart educated friend of mine … roughly age 60…had never heard of the Donner pass and the Donner party losing half their group to some bad luck with mother nature in the 1800s. it’s in the news because the same thing happened in the same area this past week with the tragic news of 8 or 9 back ski hikers who were buried in an avalanche. just wondering how is that possible in a warming world that people are killed in an ice cold avalanche? hhhmmmm. fyi… if you didn’t know this …when moving snow stops it basically freezes like cement. you have no chance to dig out of it. don’t think of powdery snow…. think of ice.
Bob, one thing I noticed about most of the oympic atheletes, they seem ill informed on everything except their sports specialty. I wonder if that could come from spending nearly every waking hour in training for their event. I guess that was the natural outcome of the olympics becoming televized. If there was no money in it, and just passing fame, maybe less records would be broken, but maybe the atheletes, would be more rounded in their development. Well, it is what it is, just like the weather.
Most people are ill informed I’d say,
but I don’t think that money has that much to do with it as I’d guess that 90% of Olympic Athletes don’t make that much money – we usually only get to see/ know the 10% of them.
I also don’t think it’s because of training, as most of them don’t do more than 4 hours a day as simple result of physical limits.
And especially ski pros don’t have that excuse as it is a seasonal sport and for half a year the training is of a maintenance kind,
and especially Miss Vonn , as she haa been out of business for years and she was often injured.
It is simply that every branch of the entertainment industry,
and sport was the 1st entertainment branch that has been weaponised(using Olympics) for the global cause.
It is simply, as with science, that most are very well aware that there career they invested so much time in may get a massive hit, if they go against the narrative .
They don’t want to get a Trump/ Djokovic treatment or be called something – ophob by the almighty western tech and media and get excommunicated from the Cool-Kids-Club..
Keep in mind that the vast majority of Olympic participants did not went through the western education&indoctrination system (though in winter sports it may not be the case), yet almost noone spoke out against male Algerian boxers in female sports during summer Olympics,
though I guess 95%+ of non western sportsmen&women were absolutely against this perversion,
therefore I wouldn’t blame Vonn too much though
It’s hard to ignore the paradox that the same people who are brave/ crazy enough to risk a crash at 80mph with only their body as crumple zone don’t dare to speak against a crazy narrative.
And keep also in mind what Orwell said:
” It was always the women, and above all the young ones(as 95% in sports are),who were the most bigoted adherents of the party, the swallowers of slogans….”
Therefore, as usual, don’t expect anything from the female side in sports,
see Renee Goode.
Women (used to) get kids. This wires them different. Survival of their offspring is their main task. That makes them much more vulnerable and therefore have to be much more agreeable to create a safe space for her baby and herself. But that doesn’t make them less aggressive.
I used to go back and forth on glaciers with an oil engineer translator colleague. All glaciers sprawl over land in which isotopes are decaying, yet Climate Sharknado agitprop elides all reference to this heat source. Bozone layer fanatics were good at ignoring volcanic chlorine spraying forth from a single volcano in Antarctica. Now that additional hundreds of small volcanos (or large vents) have been recorded since 1987, and paranoid Bozone laws are etched all over the books, the subject–and ozone measurements–are now thoughtcrime.
this is a good analyzation of the Colorado river…..
But you missed 2 important items.
The first Glenn Canyon dam didn’t come on line till 1980’s, before then the water was stopped at Hoover dam/Lake Mead and each spring the water was just released downstream to waste,water flow over the spillway at Hoover dam was a regular occurrence . Glenn Canyon stopped this over release of water and was an extra/excess storage for Lake Mead.
Second the Colorado river only accounts for 60% of the water flow into Glenn Canyon/Lake Powel, the other 40% comes from the Green River which gets its snow/water from Utah and Wyoming which is at 80-90% snow pack
You are correct the west got too comfortable with excess water, two towns that should not exist are Las Vegas and Phoenix, we learned nothing from the Anasazi
Shucks… I wouldn’t miss either of them towns. As an impressionable teenager I once had hoped to be a gambler in Vegas.
Greatest financial scam in history. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/was-climate-change-greatest-financial-scandal-history
moose stuck in snow in New Hampshire. I think that moose would like a little warm spell. https://youtu.be/bxTVA36F05c?si=9TWUhGGPPakARWDJ
The water usage needs to be matched to some fraction of the river flow, not to the amount of water behind the dam. Beyond that they need to adopt methods for getting the same done with less water, and then lastly find a way to reclaim water in some way. And they should have adequate dams to capture water in bonus years, or pump it into underground formations that can hold water. I suppose as the price of water or the dearth of it increases, there will be financial incentive to develop these other methods.
too funny…. actually it’s not funny it’s kind of sad. no ID required to vote in New York City but five IDs required to shovel snow. really? yup. “Based on reports from February 2026, the New York City Department of Sanitation requires emergency snow shovelers to provide multiple documents for registration, which has led to criticism regarding the stringency of the requirements.
ID Requirements for Snow Shoveling
To register as an emergency snow shoveler, applicants must bring the following to a local sanitation garage:
Two small photos (1.5-inch square, passport-style).
Two forms of original ID plus copies (e.g., driver’s license, passport, school ID, or IDNYC card).
A Social Security card.”
It seems to me that communism is based on extreme litigiousness. They love regulations and prosecutions. I think those who support them are mainly angry non-achievers, who don’t care any more to try to get better, but only want to drag everyone else down to their level.
The lowest level possible is the only level that includess everyone AND makes everyone equal.
Considering the current relevations about the level of blackmail (and deliberate dumbing down and perversion),
one tends to get the idea that TPTB are totally aware about how abnormal and dysfunctional the whole system is.
I guess they are also aware that, once they run out of free-shit-bribery,
that any other system has more and better things to offer.
the lawyers win. Shakespeare was right about them. lol
breaking news…. habitual liar Adam shifty schiff will not be attending tonight’s State of the Union speech because Trump is a liar. hhhmmmm. did I read that right? who’s the liar? lol. I was hoping Tony would do something on the giant northeast snow storm. I heard it was the biggest snowstorm in the history of Providence Rhode Island and probably many other places too.
It’s only the biggest in history because they didn’t have instrumentation during the Litle Ice Age.
there were some big snow storms in the 1920s in Minnesota…. says my dad. that’s when he grew up. he said it was so bad he had to walk uphill to school and when he went home he had to walk uphill then too. lol. that’s an old joke …I hope I got it right. I think it was in the late 1990s, we had huge snows in Western Minnesota and South Dakota. I was driving west of Montevideo Minnesota heading past Dawson Minnesota, in the dark at about 8:00 p.m.. I had heard they had a bad blizzard but the road wasn’t too terribly bad. all of a sudden I’m about to hit a wall of snow that was at least 6 ft tall and it covered the whole Lane. I hit the brakes but because it was icy, I couldn’t stop very fast and soon realized I’m going to go right into the snow bank. thankfully there was very little traffic and I was able to switch lanes, driving into oncoming traffic but there wasn’t any. I surmised what had happened is the road had been so clogged full of snow that the highway department was only able to open one lane and some of that snow got dumped into the other lane. there were no warnings or markers leading up to that. I recall many people were snow bound in their rural farm homes for several weeks that winter.
I suggest you listen closely to what BOTH looter parties have to say about one another. I have done this–and voted Libertarian–for 4 decades.
first chance I got to vote was in 1980 and I voted for the libertarian candidate Ed Clark. since then the libertarian candidate has never equaled what Ed did. they can’t win. got to hold your nose and vote Republican. I just wish we had 535 trumps in Congress but we don’t. there’s only one Donald and we’re going to miss him when he’s done
Winters getting shorter and Summers getting longer… is the claim. I’m just wondering why the research only goes back 28 years? Hhhmmmm. in St Cloud Minnesota our temperature records go back a hundred and forty years. https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/how-much-shorter-phoenix-winters-as-arizona-temps-rise-40648471/
there’s a saying in Minnesota…. when it’s warm in Alaska it’s cold in Minnesota and vice versa. except for tomorrow and Sunday the next week is going to be very mild in Minnesota. check out what’s happening in Alaska. Fairbanks is going to be about 30 below for the next 9 days or more. I would guess in about 2 weeks that cold weather will be in Minnesota. I hope not.
we just finished the fifth longest cold streak in the history of Washington DC and that goes back a hundred and fifty years. somebody tell Al Gore! https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/dc-finally-breaks-longest-freeze-streak-1989
A cousin of mine just sent me a photo of herself from The summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. there’s a famous sign at the top that shows that you’ve arrived. If you Google it, in dozens of photos it’s mostly surrounded by bare ground but in the photo she sent me there is no bare ground, it’s completely snow covered. the temperature at the summit is always below 32 f and often can reach 20 below zero. so why are the glaciers shrinking? Less precipitation. even though snow does not melt at 25° above zero, it can slowly evaporate on a sunny day, hence a shrinking snowpack/glacier. it takes a week to get to the top and back. not my cup of tea. lol
where is everybody? did y’all freeze to death during global warming? lol. have you heard the latest? Jasmine Crockett lost her primary and now she is forced to go back to picking cotton. lol
They wouldn’t let her pick cotton; she might bite the rattlesnakes hiding under the plants.
We just had a really mild summer in Southern Brazil. The highest outdoor temperature was what I had to pay $350 a month to maintain INDOORS in Texas. Hardly anyone uses air conditioning, and the latitude here is the same as Brownsville’s. Oceans help a lot, nothing varies much.
An American drought while Britain has its wettest winter since records began? I’m beginning to think the chemtrail nutters might have a point. Interference with the water cycle is precisely what should be expected. Where’s my tinfoil hat.
As a chemtrail nutter I will share my tinfoil with you.
Works very well when it rains.
(btw – iirc the tinfoil hat originates from another batshit crazy conspiracy theory – MK Ultra, which later turned out to be??)
I actually wrote here about a decade ago all the reasons why chemtrails are not really a thing and I consider most points to be still valid,
and as I kinda live between 3 Airports a contrail overload makes any observation impossible – so I thought,
until I started to observe monopolistic contrails on contrail-free days with always the same symetric pattern and same results(milky shaded sky,weak sun even during midsummer).
It happened quite frequently in the first year but went down year after year.
And It’s actually nothing special.
As there are plans to block the sun going back to at least 1985 and Edward Teller there need to be a number off tests.
What blocks best at the lowest cost,at which height,regional deviations and adjustments etc etc, – and regular contrails my contaminate those results.
And when governments officially come up with the idea ” to block the sun ” it only means that most of the testing is going on for quite some time.
https://climatechangedispatch.com/ice-core-data-modern-warming-statistically-unremarkable/
You can find the ice core temperature profiles for both Greenland and Antarctica on line. One of the things I noticed was that temperature can reverse from its major trend for as much as a thousand years (maybe more). This would imply that the data we have, assume it’s a hundred years, could be nothing more than noise, therefore what can you say about using it for future predictions?
Fairbanks Alaska just had their coldest meteorological winter since 1970 and March isn’t any warmer. I thought we were told that Alaska was experiencing rapid warming, more so than the rest of the country. https://www-alaskasnewssource-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.alaskasnewssource.com/2026/03/02/winter-closes-10th-coldest-fairbanks-more-snow-southeast/?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a9&outputType=amp&usqp=mq331AQIUAKwASCAAgM%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=17731798210166&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.alaskasnewssource.com%2F2026%2F03%2F02%2Fwinter-closes-10th-coldest-fairbanks-more-snow-southeast%2F
Bob, you have to understand progressive math. Alaska is warming at a -7 degrees per century, while the rest of the country is only warming at a -2 degrees per century. So Alaska is warmer faster in the negative direction.
Orwellian Warming?
a bit off subject… interesting how Southern States like Arizona and Texas and Florida have rapidly growing populations and northern states like Minnesota not so much. apparently the hotter weather in the south is a draw. or is it the low taxes? in the news today Starbucks honcho Howard Schultz is fleeing Washington State, probably because they just passed a millionaires income tax… roughly 10% on income above a million. what’s not in the news is Minnesota charges roughly 10% income tax on incomes of a third of that and it’s been that way for years. probably why Howard Schultz isn’t moving to Minnesota. funny saying about Howard, he briefly wanted to be president of the United States. someone said do we really want a guy like him to be president… the man who turned the cost of a serving of coffee from 25 cents to 6 bucks. lol
Be afraid. Be very afraid. that’s the message from the top of the hour news. extreme heat is expected in Los Angeles says the weather expert. so I’m thinking it’s the middle of March so how can we be suffering from extreme heat in the middle of March????? the weather expert goes on and says check on the elderly and the pregnant because they can’t handle this extreme heat as well as young and healthy people. ok. but what kind of extreme heat are we going to get in the middle of March? I checked the forecast I’m thinking is it going to be 105 is it going to be 110? no, the Los Angeles forecast is roughly 90° for today’s high high…. which may be close to a record maybe is a record high for this time of year but calling a 90° day extreme heat is laughable!!!!!
we’re a little below average in snowfall so far in central Minnesota but we’re going to make that up in the next two days. forecast vary from 6 to 18 inches. in other news, is man-made climate change causing wetter weather in Spain or dryer weather in Spain? apparently both. lol. https://x.com/ChrisMartzWX/status/2030291325627601405
Record heat! in some places and not others. the record high in St Cloud Minnesota for yesterday March 20th is 65°. it wasn’t that warm yesterday but today it’s 72. if that would have happened yesterday it would have blown the record to smithereens. but today’s high of 72 isn’t a record. the record is 75. currently in southern Minnesota it’s as high as 80 and in northern Minnesota, at the same time, it’s in the 30s. much colder in the North partly because they still have snow on the ground.
