DOES AL WHORE KNOW???
Not to worry. Kali klowns’ faith in global warming will wish it away.
It might mean some revenue for ski industry proprietors, but nothing else will come in the way of benefits as the melt off runs directly into the sea and the environmental movement keeps marching California to the poor house.
Al Gore can ski that snow if he can find the time away from his mansion(s). (Don’t know if he has several like BigCarbonFootPrint Michael Moore, but wouldn’t surprise me).
That is Global Warming for you.
If only CA had a way of capturing all that water, and saving it for a (not so) rainy day.
Something big, that holds a lot of water...
Something they’ve built in the past, but now dismiss as being useless to alleviate their drought and wet cycles.
On the weather channel last night in an episode of “Strangest Weather” the talking head said it was the lowest snowpack in 150 years. BTW the program was made in 2016 but not updated.
Now that all the earthwork dams in the Sierras have been knocked down and the gates opened, what is to prevent the seasonal flooding of much of the Central Valley that had recurred for eons before it was settled by persons of European descent who were looking for agricultural land?
It took most of a century of hard and steady work to bring the annual flooding under control, and to construct the sluices and waterways that fed the breadbasket of the Central Valley.
Yeah. Sure is a shame they don’t have a few billion more acre-feet of storage. They only had about 5 months to plan for the bounty, and I am sure they managed to screw it up.
Even if they were to build several smaller water storage devices I would support it.
CA does not do this part of their job very well at all.
I’m tired of this crap by the environmental left. All of these “learned” climatologists and weather scientists were saying California would experience an El Niño effect with lots of rain during the winter of 15/16, but they cautioned everyone that even with excess rain it wouldn’t be enough to end the drought out there. The forecast was a big dud and it was mostly dry throughout the state. This past winter of 16/17 the same people predicted it would be a typical dry year. Instead they get record rainfall and Shazam the drought is miraculously declared done by Gov. Moonbeam. Sure, whatever. What a crock of sh** these people are serving out there on the Left Coast.
Say, that’s right. Looks like it’ll be an interesting spring and summer too.
If they built water storage they would loose masot support groups. They have access to a built-in crisis at anytime — the socialist and central planners best launching pad.
California does have a lot of snowflakes. But I was unaware that a group of them was called a “snowpack”. I always thought they were called a “campus”.
We Californians should all have a Yuge Delta Smelt party to wave at all the water as it melts and flows out to sea!!
And California’s fudgepack is even bigger.
The science is settled. Duh.
This all confirms Al’s model, where droughts, rain, too much rain, flooding, no snow, normal snow pack, record snow pack, incredible freezing weather way South of Normal, and hot weather too, all confirm that global warming is real.
If you’re a snow-flake, any of this serves to confirm what they’ve said all along is true.
In fact, there isn’t a type of weather that doesn’t confirm global warming.
If you don’t buy into this, you’re a heretic.
In the movie, “Day After Tomorrow”, the Eastern Seaboard experiences a blizzard that buries all but the tallest of buildings around New York.
That was evidence of global warming too.
These parameters alone should tell any curious individual volumes.
Alas, that would be heresy.
Instead they are tearing out dams and building a bullet train through what will become an arid desert once again.
