April 14, and we have snow in VA. How much more?

Question

more ‘global warming’ can we take before we have winter all year long?

I say this with complete sarcasm to anyone foolish enough to believe in such none sense. Do you feel as foolish today as you sound? How in the face of such hard, real evidence, (I am holding the snow ball) can you still rant and rave such misinformation.

Answer 1

Something tells me that you are up in the mountains, not the coastal plain. Something also tells me that you have the strange idea that your one datum about weather can match all the records of climate. These are two different things.

If I wanted to argue weather with you, I'd mention the temperatures in the 70s, here in PA. But I don't, so I won't. I know the difference between weather and climate.

Answer 2

I'm in Missouri, getting ready to plant tomatos.  Traditional historic date is 4-28, to be clear of late frosts, snow, etc.  Be patient, and you might look up past years' records.

Answer 3

I just love when people think their backyard is the whole world.

"The overall picture is now clear: during fall and winter, [northern hemisphere] snow cover hasn’t really shown any trend over the last four decades, but in spring and summer it’s declined significantly, with its fastest decline during summer."
