I read snow in it’s elevations is normal.
I have to wonder, what would “Doctor Science” say about this?
I heard that too, but where’s the fun in that? :-)
This is pretty close to doctrine, they way I hear it.
Tell them it’s only fair, snow in Hawaii, next week warm surf lapping up against the Himalayan mountains. If they buy into all that PC BS, they’ll believe that.
Because it is at almost 14,000 feet elevation?! Not sure if they are getting more precipitation than normal? Will have to check.

Entering a mini ice age.
It snows at ten thousand feet
Eg: "Hawaii Faces Down Nearly Three Feet of Snow" or "Will Hawaii's snow storm ruin my vacation? What travelers need to know" or "Hawaii Gets Pounded with Snow" or "More snow in Hawaii than Cleveland? Yep. It happened this past ..." or "Hawaii's highest peaks get 2 feet of snow — and more is on the way" and hundreds more like that.
But if you're right, that this is totally normal, then I'd have to think the unthinkable - that the news pages are hyping a story far beyond its true importance in order to generated more clicks. You truly expect me to believe that? Yeah, right.
:-)
The “blizzards” they’re talking about are normal weather on Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea, which are both over 13K feet. There’s nothing to explain.
Normal, happens frequently.
It’s either Trump or Bush’s fault.
Definitely Republicans.
Baby It’s cold Outside???
Yeah, the MSM doing “Click Bait Headlines” for ad revenue?!?! Say it ain’t so! That borders on “Fake News”!! :-0
In reading further I see that the observatory on Mauna Kea averages up to 10-15 feet of snow per year (eq. to 7.14” of rain). So I guess 2 feet in a couple of days would be quite a bit for them. I didn’t read the MSM reports, but it sounds like they were implying with their click bait headlines that it was snowing on Waikiki beach or something!

Do we have to sacrifice a Climate-Changer denier or promoter to the great volcano snow-gods to stop this catastrophe?
In other news, Mauna Loa snowing special trips now available.
Check with Snowjob Travel Company for details.
Are you that gullible? Bring up the weather for any Hawaiian island. Below 5000 feet, all is as usual.
You go above 10,000 feet most anywhere, expect sleet or snow if a lot of moisture comes through in the winter.
It happens more often than you’d think. Esp above 9000 ft.
Kualapuu means colder than a well digger’s @ss in Hawaiian. ;)
Sigh.... I guess the lesson here is: No matter how many little hints I insert to indicate this is sarcasm aimed at liberals (AGW alarmists in this case), too many is never enough. The only alternative is to insert big "SARCASM ALERT!" tags every other word.
Personally, I couldn't care less how far above normal this is for Hawaiian winters.
My reason for posting was to generate a little sarcastic fun at the expense of AGW's True Believers, by imagining a conversation where their handlers / string-pullers strive to reassure them that unusually heavy Hawaiian snows are in no way an indictment of AGW Holy Doctrine, by coming up with all kinds of ridiculous excuses for the snowstorm. Sort of like the "Dr. Science" radio series.
Some posters have the right idea, adding their own humorous explanations. Eg, sacrifices in the volcano. I was hoping someome could figure a way to connect Zero's (alleged) Hawaiian roots to the blizzard.
