That would be Good!
Yes, that is fresh snow on the ground. Almost 4" of it.
Perisher ski resort got a foot of snow.
This would be like a foot of snow falling on the Smokey Mountains on the Tennessee/Virgina border on June 21st.
Um, wasn’t there a lot of talk, just a couple years ago, about the sun being void of sunspots? I remember seeing articles about it when arguing AGW with the AGW flat earthers.
It’s got some good music.
I’m gonna guess the sequel was even worse, though.
I’ve mentioned to people that the temperature at the south pole could go up 20 degrees, and if the moisture content went up as well, and we got a LOT of precipitation where there is little now, we could see a massive increase in the polar ice cap even though temperatures warmed, since the average would still be way below freezing.
Sure, over-simplistic, but it at least makes people think.

My theory is that the earth is a self regulating entity. This is born out by the amount of time it has been able to support life in its many forms. Even after catastrophic events it recovers and carries on. Our contribution to this great drama is miniscule to say the least.
And the Dalton Gang hideout was down in Southwest Kansas...believe it was Meade Kans...bout 80 miles out of Dodge City.
bumpity bump bump.
QUOTED FROM ICE AGE NOW WEBSITE -
IN AUSTRALIA:
Cold and rain records tumble in Alice Springs, Australia (I missed this earlier, so am listing it now.) - 20 Sep 10 - The Alice Springs district did not only experience its coldest September day on record, but some areas have already broken the rainfall record for the month - and there are still 10 days to go.
On Thursday, temperatures in Alice Springs did not make it over the 11.6C mark on thermometers, bringing the coldest September day to the Alice since the beginning of temperature recordings in 1942.
Uluru experienced its wettest September on record, while other locations across the district were also due to break their records, after a cloud band brought “good falls” to Central Australia.
Around 30mm to 50mm of rain had been recorded in the Alice district throughout last week, but several locations, including Jervois and Atula - northeast of Alice Springs - had up to 94mm of rain.

Eastern Australia “massive cold front” - 17 Oct 10 - Parts of southern NSW were declared a natural disaster area yesterday after flooding, gales and snow forced the evacuation of hundreds of residents, damaged dozens of homes and closed major roads.
The massive cold front that passed over NSW, Victoria and southern Queensland late on Friday and early yesterday left the State Emergency Services with 1300 requests for help.
Plummeting temperatures brought unseasonal snowfalls to the Blue Mountains, southern highlands and southern tablelands as well as the cities of Orange and Bathurst, temporarily closing the Mid Western Highway. Snow also fell in Canberra.
