Eh. 28 inches last weekend, a couple of more Tuesday, and then 5 inches last night. Pretty slick this morning what with the warm roads quickly turning to ice.

Typical spring.

A bit over 22 feet of snow for the season. Snow pack is a little bit less than average I think, but the last 3 feet have helped.

Boulder shows 113 for the season, the average is 86 inches.

I switched back to my winter coat today after a week in just a hoodie. It’s 3, going down to -2 C again tonight.

Really, it has been horrible this winter in the northeast.

Coldest three months (Jan-Mar) for the northeast US. Ever.

Most snow. Ever.

It’s not just that it seems like the snowiest, coldest winter ever. It actually has been.

That it’s still not over, that’s just icing on the cake of misery.

Yeah, I’ll be thinking of that ice age during our 111-degree weather.

That’s great.

Now what the fuck does this have to do with you personally being sick of snow happening where you live, which is, after all, rather the point of this particular thread?

You’ve already got your very own thread to troll on local weather. Why do you feel it is necessary to shit on other people’s nice things?

If somebody is bemoaning their snowy fate, and it actually is the worst goddamn winter they ever went through, with the most goddamn miserable snow ever, it helps them cope a little. It’s not just you. It really was/is a shitty winter.

I already made it. I sympathize with anyone suffering from the unbelievable winter this year. And I provided evidence to show it isn’t just in your head.

And the worst thing is that the few scientists he can point at as supporting his idea are not in reality if favor of what he is trying to by undermining past theories or that a new theory for polar and mid latitude weather means that the theories that he hates are discredited. Cohen and researchers that do work with him like Jennifer Francis do not think so:

> **[Opinion | Bundle Up, It’s Global Warming (Published 2010)](https://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/26/opinion/26cohen.html?_r=0)**
>
> Why is it so cold and snowy in Europe and the Eastern United States? Global warming is affecting the snow cover in Siberia.

FX is \*\*really\*\* that deluded.

Asshole.

I personally hope that the droughts this summer center exactly on the properties of people who make comments like this.

Today is lovely. You know the worst part of this winter and the reason why everyone not on the East Coast of America is shrugging? Because everywhere else in the world, it was a warmer than normal winter. Is there such a thing as a cold sink? Cuz we got that covered here.

I drove to Monterey Friday. It snowed in the mountains. On the way home, there was over a foot on the ground!
