Never before in the history of a research project dating back to 1946 had the Juneau Icefield witnessed the kind of snow buildup that came this year. It was similar on a lot of other glaciers too. “
Paging algore. Global Warming is causing massive snow packs. And now the clown bHo wants to spend billions and sign laws to fix global warming.

For several years there has been speculation that as sea temps warm slightly the evaporation rate will increase and deposit more snow at slightly higher altitudes.

I can atest to it being colder this summer and our bear guide in Icy Straits, said the snow was on the mountains earlier than in many years.

I live in Wasilla and I can attest to the unusually cold weather this year. We didn’t have a summer and October was like February. Where is that global warming when you really need it? I have had snow on the ground for a month. I remember a few years ago when we didn’t get snow until December.
