Wrong, Forbes and NBC, Climate Change Isn’t Ending White Christmases
Forbes and NBC News were among several media outlets that ran what turned out to be ill timed articles on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day claiming climate change threatened to end snow on Christmas. This is false. Despite repeated claims of the “end of snow,” made repeatedly by myriad mainstream media outlets in the past, data show snowfall amounts overall have remained relatively stable over the past few decades, with, if anything, snow falling earlier while declining late in the season with a slightly earlier arrival of spring. Overall snow trends are virtually unchanged, and white Christmases are as frequent or infrequent as they have been historically going back to the little ice age prior to the late 1800’s when, due to entirely natural factors, winters were more severe. more
How many times do we have to say..”not ONE climate prediction in the past 70 years has come true.”
How many times do we have to say…”Follow the money.”
How many times do we have to say…”It’s called weather.”
But…but…but AI says so now too. What, you don’t believe garbage AI algorithms on top of garbage statistical algorithms? This needs billions more in research funding.

Repeat the lie often enough – British schoolkids won’t know what snow looks like, polar bears extinct, coastal cities underwater, Great Lakes stop freezing over, the snow on Mt Kilimanjaro will disappear, only 10 more years until it’s too late. On and on and on.
We have had hardly any snow so far this winter in Eastern Washington and N. Idaho. Lots of snow in the local mountains which is great for the local ski areas and rain, rain, and more rain than we usually get this time of year. It’s raining cats and dogs right now and poor Kirby when he goes outside turns into a giant mud and dirt bug.
My last Christmas in the Toronto area was in 1964. We left Canada Dec. 26, 1964. There was no snow on the ground and hardly any snow that autumn or early winter. Nobody had heard the fake term “global warming” in those days and nobody blamed lack of snow on GB. It was just a warm start to winter and I think nobody spent 5 minutes worrying about it. We crossed the border into Michigan, and then travelled through Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, etc. partly on Rt. 66, partly on completed sections of I-40. No snow anywhere. In Oklahoma, the temps were in the mid-60s.
^^^^^ However, there still may be something to GB, as we are, according to at least one graph I saw, still coming out of the later stages of cold age. The warming if any, appears to me to be natural.
