And, then there is this from this morning in Reno:

...Storm to Bring Winter-Like Conditions Back to the Region
Sunday...

A strong storm dropping into the region will bring back winter-like
conditions Sunday with high temperatures as much as 25 degrees
below normal. With rain and snow showers, overcast skies and
breezy winds, the temperatures will feel downright frigid,
especially considering it is June.

Overnight low temperatures in the Sierra could stay below
freezing for as many as 3 to 4 more nights. Monday morning will
be the greatest concern in western Nevada with colder valleys
outside of urban centers likely dropping into the mid 30s for
lows. Anyone with sensitive vegetation in these areas should take
the necessary precautions.

Accumulating snow will be possible in the Sierra above 6000 feet
Saturday night through Sunday night with 2-4 inches of snow
possible in the higher elevations above 7000 feet. In northeast
California, 4-8 inches is possible above 6500 feet, with a couple
inches down to 6000 feet. Mountains in western Nevada are also
likely to see several inches of snow accumulation, with up to an
inch for locations such as the Virginia City highlands. With the
June sun angle, snow will melt off rapidly with impacts to
mountain passes likely to be short-lived. However, even a short
burst of accumulating snow can cause a significant travel hazard,
so slow down if you end up in any snow showers.

Stories about a heat wave, shouted from the mountain tops, Global warming, global warming, global warming...

Stories about a lower than normal temperature by far, whispered... accepted as a fluke.

Discussing weather is the pointless Red Herring in the entire Climate debate.
