More GloBull Warming.

Several ski resorts here in Colorado are poised to open shortly. For skiers, boarders, and resort operators and workers, “can barely wait and contain excitement.”

Let it snow! (That’s coming from a transplanted Florida guy. Embracing the season.)

But….climate change…

[FlingWingFlyer]

Oh no. Another record-breaking, historical, snowball, express, vortex, cyclone named El Niño is headed this way to bring down America. ROTFL.

I thought snowfalls were a thing of the past?! The NYT told me so!

[Libloather]

...“early season obstacles”...

Last season's missing?

The Independent, 2000:

Snow is starting to disappear from our lives. Sledges, snowmen, snowballs and the excitement of waking to find that the stuff has settled outside are all a rapidly diminishing part of Britain’s culture, as warmer winters – which scientists are attributing to global climate change – produce not only fewer white Christmases, but fewer white Januaries and Februaries … Global warming, the heating of the atmosphere by increased amounts of industrial gases, is now accepted as a reality by the international community … According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”. “Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said.

Climate change causes everything from floods to drought, tornadoes and hurricanes, more snow AND less, warmer temps and cooler ones. Hell, it even causes hemorrhoids, halitosis, flatulence and impotence.

Something it will never cause…TAX CUTS.

I used to be a ski fanatic when I was younger but haven't skied in 20 years.

To many people, especially me, its become unaffordable.

For example, a daily lift ticket at Vail is now approx. $265.00

I think a couple places just stayed open out west

Will be interesting to see how the "Climate Activists" - and California is full of them all the way up to Newsom - try to spin this, I suspect with resounding silence.

Newsom will continue to ramp up hysteria about "Global Warming" "Climate Change" mandating an end to economy-destroying policies such no gasoline engines and continuing with ridiculous "carbon offsets."

Newsom will say the early opening is due to "Climate Change."

He'd say same if Mammoth had a late opening.

I remember Rush saying the climategoons will cite climate change no matter what the weather does. If it's hot....climate change. If it's cold...climate change.

The climategoons can never be wrong this way. They continue to move the goalposts.

[BradyLS]

Zackly right.

Here in NC, can’t decide whether to turn the heat on...or the AC.

Lol…my wife’s favorite flower vase has a big “Let it snow” on it. She brings it out in September.

My knee surgery cost a lot more then 265$.
It was always “I’ll quit next year”.
