Snowing in California

It’s already starting in the Tahoe basin.

“This photo is from the National weather service today,” says reader Chris von Duering. “Mount Rose Highway between Reno and Incline Village.”

I don’t know if this is unusual or not, but it’s a long way from the predictions by climate ‘expert’ Dr. David Viner.

Back in the year 2000, Dr Viner, senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, announced that within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”.

“Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” said Viner.

David Parker, at the Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research in Berkshire, echoed Viner’s warning. Ultimately, children “could have only virtual experience of snow,” said Parker.”Via the internet, they might wonder at polar scenes – or eventually “feel” virtual cold.”
