I live at 4,ooo feet in the Sierra, and we’ve had nothing but snow, and ice since mid-November.

4. Deserts of the Southwest United States They're already deserts for goodness sakes. If they are endangered it is from paving over them in metro Phoenix (which does have the effect of increasing nighttime temperatures as the heat absorbed by the black pavement is radiated back into the atmosphere -- it is a local effect and not due to CO2 climate change) or being trampled and trashed by the illegals and drug lords using them.

Oh no, it's time for
At 200% of annual average snowfall and snow pack as of 1 January 2011, and three months of winter left, (Jan and Feb historically the wettest CA months) we will be lucky if all CA is not a glacier or flooded. Wettest snow pack in 17 years.

While waiting for Congress this AM, Some girl (young) writer was claiming that the GW/CC bunch was changing the way they talked about the issue. Due to the fact that people don’t believe the message any longer. Propaganda bait and switch alert.

Oh I’m sure the Sierra’s are groaning under 200% of snowfall.
Poor thing.
I only hope the melt off is not diverted from the Valley.

In my well accumulated years, I've always heard the phrase, “Mother Nature is a bitch.” Modern science calls it man caused Climate Change. Well, man wasn't around during the Ice Ages, but I bet Mother Nature was.

How many dozens of feet of snow do they have in the Sierra Nevadas right now?Inyo may know.
To: Navy Patriot
Yeah I heard it sucks. Damned saddest part is I take care of a friend at night and on the weekends so I can’t make it up Heavenly and enjoy what has to be the most amazing snow in years.
Make those black diamonds on the backside a breeze to go down since I won’t be looking out for rocks.

It’s gonna be funny when the SF morons switch over to wind turbines & solar panels, only to see a global cooling period freeze up their turbines & dump snow onto their solar panels.

What’s funny is people sitting on a major earthquake fault worried that the weather might get so warm they won’t need a coat at a Giants night game.
