I'm not complaining, but I haven't seen much snow for 10 years now.
We've had some snow already, but there's not much left - mostly icy spots. I'm gonna guess that one of these years it's gonna be a doozy....
I'm only 42, but when I was a kid, it was guaranteed that there would be some epic snow piles (or drifts to tunnel into) by now.

Almost 20 years ago we had so much snow roofs caved in and the entire city shut down. Now, we had one day of snow and it melted before the day ended, temps have been consistently above freezing.

Well, Donnie the Orange Shit Stain keeps telling us climate change is a Chinese hoax designed to ruin our economy. Given that Maggie Thatcher used global warming caused by fossil fuels to destroy the Unions in the UK, it's a bit hypocritical don't you think?

I walked 3 miles today in shorts and thin sweatshirt in Seattle today. This is not normal

End of december in Eugene, OR and not a day or night below freezing. That just ain't right

50° in the morning in the middle of winter feels off. Treasure valley in Idaho.

Yeah, with some odd exceptions, snowfall levels are way down across the USA. But Climate Change is also about wide swings, so we also see severe storms in a few places.

We had a microburst here some years back.... first ever in the state

It's in Winnipeg.

Just got dumped with 18 inches of snow and some wind. 4ft drift behind my truck.
mrpink83
Oof! Sorry dude.
I wish the precipitation was more widespread, like I remember, instead of dumping everything in one spot.

No, but to be fair it's only ever snowed once where I live according to the records and that was a very long time ago.
And I really hope it doesn't happen, my house has a flat roof.
Snow would be very problematic, heavy snow would be a disaster.
zylokun
No. I don't. And I'm in my 30s. Fuck...
EnigmaticEmpress
Yeah but think of all the value we made for oil and coal company shareholders. Ruining the planet for human habitation was a great deal.

We're supposed to be grateful for the billionaires and their infinite wisdom! /s

Snowed last week. I built a snowman. It melted pretty quickly. Temperature went up into the fifties. Rained. Then dropped right back below freezing, leaving ice in the snow shovel on the lawn. A shovel that i had propped against the stick arm of a 5 1/2 foot tall snowman just a few days earlier. Weird. Gonna be 60 on xmas.

If it snowed here and it stuck i would be very very worried.

No. Hardly ever snows here.

Spoiler alert: weather is cyclical. Meaning decades-long (+) cycles. Don’t panic, be easy my dudes.
mrpink83
I know. ;)

We've been hearing that for the last forty years, is it really true? Given Mona Loa has been telling us that CO2 levels are rising and have been for the last 40 years, bit of a coincidence you think?
DaSauceSeeker
It's gonna be ~80°F here all this week....
mrpink83
Where are you?

80 in Phoenix is weird too.... I went to college in Tucson near 18 years ago and regularly had a night or two of snowfall per year.
