A White Christmas!
You guys are so lucky. 🙁
Yea, been 58 years without one for me. No Norman Rockwell paintings around here.
Andy Oz, after many White Christmas’s one wants to head to where this partial global warming and White beaches.
Your welcome to winter down under Darryl.
32 degrees C beautiful and sunny in Perth today.
Summer has arrived. 😀
And snow on Saturday in Paso Robles, CA?
I commented in an earlier thread that the hot wine growing area of Paso Robles at 740 feet is slated to see temperatures drop to 19°f by tomorrow and Thursday, and Saturday. Nearly unprecedented for a desert region known for “long, hot, dry summers [with temperatures sometimes exceeding 110 °F (43 °C)] and brief, cool, sometimes rainy winters.” I thought perhaps it had never snowed ever in Paso Robles. Turns out, in all of recorded history for the town, it has snowed only twice: 4 inches on April 5, 1929, and 25 years ago on December 15, 1988. So, either way snow is a freak event for Paso Robles, and with decades of supposed runaway warming, this is not what the whiner Viner would have predicted.
By the way, I think there is going to be a lot of damage to the crops of citrus and wine growers in the Paso area and in the Central Valley. So, not good.
These fellas seem to think that we may be in for more cold weather ….. a BLOODY LOT MORE cold weather

Very good link, Col A. An excerpt:
This [200 year] solar de Vries cycle together with the [60 year] AMO/PDO determine practically completely the global climate of the past (Fig. 1) and the coming time. A significant influence of CO2 on the climate thus has to be excluded. This latter is not surprising in view of the small amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and its weak infrared absorption cross section (also in view of the various proves of NEGATIVE water feedback). [I add, also see this key 3 minute video on the CO2 lag and Al Gore’s deceptions on CO2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WK_WyvfcJyg%5D
The present “stagnation” [16 year warming pause?] of global temperature (Fig. 5) is essentially due to the AMO/PDO: the solar de Vries cycle is presently at its maximum. Around this maximum it changes negligibly. [These cycles account] for the long temperature rise since 1870. One may note that the stronger temperature increase from the 1970s to the 1990s, which is “officially” argued to prove warming by CO2, is essentially due to the AMO/PDO cycle.
