Two Memphis City Council members think the snow from Winter Storm Fern is man-made.

Council members Pearl Walker and Yolanda Cooper Sutton both publicly said the snow was artificial in differing Facebook posts and comments this week. Claims of fake snow have been rampant on social media during the storm, especially TikTok.

Cooper Sutton posted a video showing who she says is her husband attempting to melt a chunk of snow with a lighter.

In the video, Cooper Sutton says, “This is not melting. This is fire. OMG. What is falling from the sky hitting the ground? Oh my God. We can’t make this up.”

This sounds like something Candace Owens can glom onto for her next conspiracy theory. It’s perfect for her! Maybe it’ll distract her from Charlie and Erika. (Note to Candace: Charlie didn’t pick you. You’re jealous. Just get over it already.)

“It’s understood snow is rare in Tennessee (other than in the mountains)”

We’re in east TN, not in the mountains, and get snowed in almost every year, anywhere from 2-10 days. (I’m not sure about Memphis, though.)

I’d heard the big storm was artificially generated, but the snow being fake is news to me.

If I said it once, I’ve said it a million times: There needs to be a constitutional requirement that any person that holds a political office MUST submit to random drug testing quarterly. These are people whose decisions affect millions and for all we know they could be on LSD

Interestingly enough, this old man agrees with the two council members. So maybe there’s something to it.

At times like this, it’s best to not mention the IQ Gap, so I won’t.

I doubt those two could spell IQ if you spotted them the Q.

One of my favorite old time writers liked to use the word Congoid.

This thread reminded me of it.

Lol.

I didn’t look at any photo, but I expect my suspicions match yours.

Remember that Memphis Congresscritter who sat in Chambers chowing down on a bucket of KFC? 😒 Have never traveled west to that area, and I don’t plan to ... ever.

Forget about it—it’s Memphis.

Something for the two council members to consider:

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Snow’s not really rare in west Tennessee, where Memphis is. (I’m not in Shelby County, thankfully, but I am in west Tennessee.) We can get one or two snows a year, usually in late January and/or in February, and generally only a few inches. The thing is it’s mostly gone in a few days because our temperatures fluctuate so much. But this prolonged arctic blast has kept our temps so low this year, the snow isn’t melting off. I don’t remember ever seeing snow last this long on the ground!
