It has been exactly one year since the New York Times announced the official end of snow.
One year later

Yep… total load of shit.. this “end of snow”…
What bigger message that you are wrong than dumping a few feet on Boston and NY… right in the heart of NY Timesland… still… they hold onto their premise claiming all this snow is indeed “Climate Change”… formerly Global Warming.. a name that just didn’t fit the narrative… total crap…
I guess they thought the question mark at the end absolves them from being alarmist. Still, more evidence that they change their tune whenever it suits them.
Interesting, last year out west(Canada) we got hammered by snow…this year (thing of the past)…Castle Mountain closed due to lack of it…the warmist will be all over that of course, ignoring last year altogether…
Record snowfall in both Kitimat and Terrace.
“Kitimat [British Columbia] has received 120 cm (47.2″) of snow since Thursday morning and another 10 to 20 cm (3.9″ to 5.9″) is expected on Friday night. That mean it’s on track to beat the past 24-hour snowfall record of 112 cm (44.1″) , which was set on Feb. 5, 1961.”
“Terrace may also break a 24-hour all-time snow record; it’s seen 111 cm (43.7″) fall so far.”

Update.
Kitimat received an incredible 168 cm (66.1 inches) in just two days.
In places that haven’t been plowed, it must be at least five or six feet deep, and the snow banks are up to 10 to 12 feet tall.
B.C.’s Haisla First Nation ordered the evacuation of Kitamaat Village and its 800 residents on Saturday night, three days after the community lost power following a major snowstorm….

Castle Mountain will be opening on Friday, the 13th, according to its web page. I guess the owners aren’t the superstitious type. Also, the closure was only temporary.

Germany – 60 cm (2 ft) of new snow
No, you’re confusing weather with temperature with trends with atmospheric phenomena with polar vortex with climate.
It doesn’t work like that. I’d explain it to you but your brain can’t handle the nuance.
I wish I was dumber so that I could be more certain about my opinions!
Then please explain it to the IPCC, it would be good for them to have at least one model that isn’t a complete and total failure.
This is the biggest mistake. The climate is never a “global”. Stratosphere and polar vortex is governed by solar activity and geomagnetic field.
https://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2014/12/27/the-polar-vortex-scam-about-to-die/
So the polar vortex doesn’t have any evil CO2 in it? Are these colder and snowier than normal “atmospheric phenomena” the result of more taxes or the result of using those taxes to prop up unsustainable “renewable” energy? Which EPA regulation is making winter worse?
And let’s be thankful it’s back. I mean snow. It’s essential, right? I mean, we have to have snow. Right? Else how would we ski? But nevertheless, it’s back. So everything is cool. Right?
Cool? It’s 12°F colder than normal at my place. The (usless, meaningless, manipulated) average temp should be 72°F… and it’s 60°F here and that qualifies as “cold” not “cool” for Florida. (Yes, after living here for a quarter of a century I’m a weather wimp.)
You an me both brother! After wandering around most my life, I settled in Arizona cause it’s nice and warm.

In other news, Rhode, Zeke and Mosh postulate that BEST adjustments have been totally pointless:

Ahh….but SKS says this is just a brief period of cool caused by ‘natural variability’
The warming will kick in soon.
What are the odds of nutter/kook being wrong twice? They are scientists!!
Steve,
your work on adjustments has kicked off something interesting at the Telegraph, 21787 comments and counting.

Any weather event that can be plotted above or below some artificial average line for some artificial time period for some limited geographic area is proof positive of the CAGW theory. The scientists say so. So there.
NY Times 2012 – The End of Skiing in the Northeast:
….scientists say that climate change means the long-term outlook for skiers everywhere is bleak. The threat of global warming hangs over almost every resort, from Sugarloaf in Maine to Squaw Valley in California. As temperatures rise, analysts predict that scores of the nation’s ski centers, especially those at lower elevations and latitudes, will eventually vanish.
Under certain warming forecasts, more than half of the 103 ski resorts in the Northeast will not be able to maintain a 100-day season by 2039, according to a study to be published next year by Daniel Scott, director of the Interdisciplinary Center on Climate Change at the University of Waterloo in Ontario.

HMMMmmm she may have something there… Our insurance company already pulled the “We will not insure you card” If you have a mortgage and the insurance is canceled you lose your home. PERIOD It is worse than foreclosure!
