Start preparing for the next ice age... Only if an ice age is worthy of wealth transfer.

1600 meters that’s around more or less the 5000 foot level

Wow, and at the beginning of September? Might be a good ski season in Europe after last year’s bad season...

If I remember right, last year, some Labor Day run out west (Montana?) was cancelled because the snowpack hadn’t mrkted yet.
Climate changers might have the right idea, just backwards and upside down. :-)

Global warming cooled the air and I turned up the oven to make more ice cubes.

About ten years ago, one whole day of events at the Calgary Stampede was disrupted by snowfall.
This might seem unspectacular, except the Calgary Stampede is held during the second week of July. LOL.

Not quite at 1600 metres, but we’ve set a new record in Colorado of 67 days out of the year over 90 degrees. Wouldn’t mind visiting the Alps right now.

We had a really long hot summer here in Ohio as well, beginning with record 80 degree days in March followed by many days and weeks over 90 from May through August. Fortunately we know the difference between weather and climate so we can relax, knowing next summer will be cooler.

About a decade ago, it was confidently predicted that the (small and unimpressive) snowfields in sunny Australia would all disappear by 2010. Instead, they have grown, and are just about the only bit of local tourism doing well - the beaches have been less attractive because of a series of cool wet summers.
