There's a sure-fire solution for this problem. Live in the south or on the west coast.
Those NOHRSC snow maps are always a couple of days behind. For example, we wont know how much snow falls today until the end of the day. Then that number gets put into tomorrows maps which get posted at the end of the day tomorrow. So the maps seem to be running two days behind from what I can tell.
We're in the California low desert, so we don't have to worry......I'd prefer to live in the south (family and friends) but they, too, get their nasty ice storms and such stuff.
TRUE TRUE!
The 2008 and 2009 maps look almost identical, and both have about 3 times more snow than the 2003 map. It’s that old Globull Warming.
2009 would be much worse right now if we did not have that Indian Summer for two weeks in November. It gave us over two weeks of abnormally mild air. Probably caused by the lack of Hurricanes in the Atlantic which allowed the Gulf to stay warmer longer assisted by the weak trade winds allowing backward flow up from Mexico. Now we have 10 days left until January and February arrive and another California Blizzard is coming to the plains possibly followed by three more Texas Blizzards. See Accuweather Blogs for the gory details.
OMG, the glaciers are going to consume us!!!!
Nice work .... posting this one on facebook :)
