Irrefutable evidence of a defunct ski industry.
It’s dry ice.
The live pict shows about a foot and 1/2 to two feet of snow on a car. Lots of drought!
OT: We had LaNinas in 1954, 1964, 1974, 1984, 1995 and 2005.
In 2013 we had negative anomalies in the ENSO region the entire year,

This suggests that 2014 will be again a LaNina year and *if it happens* it will be *the first time since 1950* that more than 4 years pass between two ElNinos, and another prediction of AGW (that the ElNino frequencies would increase due to GHGs) will bite the dust.
Devastating drought condition slows down the bullet trains in China!

Terrifying scenes at Lake Superior.

Interesting that California is having a “dry spell” similar to 1976-77

and Steve has pointed out other similarities with that period (including the polar vortex)

Now, if we think that 1976 was a year of solar minimum between cycles #20 and #21 and the Arctic ice was in a strong recovery also, that would spike in the maximum of 1978,

then maybe we’re having now a similar climate forcing and, therefore, a similar response of the system.
If so, this would be good news for the Arctic ice.
Shock News: Toledo has 39 inches of record drought in January beating 1978 by 30%!!

Shock News: Religious leaders call on God to save the LGBT capital of the world. It appears that he is not listening! LGBT groups to protest that god illegally discriminates.

This photo is from the year with no winter, right?
But, in the summer, all the snow will be gone. See, AGW at work.
(Just trying to encourage the Warmists.)
They’re still working the ‘oceans absorbing the heat’ bit.

Getting harder and harder to pick out that Man-Made Global-Warming fingerprint from all that background Natural-Variability.
Question: Why bother? Oh. Grant $$$ + Political agenda.
How many Manhattans is that?
Still snowing in Albuquerque.
snow in the Scottish mountains shatters all records. 20 years worth has fallen in 1 week.AGW
