No such thing as AGW?

Depends on the model, some of the AGW climate scientists were predicting greater snow levels. Warm air holds more moisture, so when it did dump on us, it would be wet, heavy snows, instead of the super chilled dry snow.

So with this theory, we would have more snow in winter and less in spring, just like the ski areas prefer.

we had a problem with precipitation, not temperature.

(Alaska, by comparison, had no problems with either).

I certainly feel the lack of precipitation is a major concern (we're more dry than we were in 2002).
However, I don't think I'd lump this in AGW evidence file.

Other than Dillon sending water to the NFSP River look at any of the other streams. They look as low as fall and it is only May. Hope we get rain this spring/summer.

Sorry SC avoiding the AGW as it has been discussed so many times before.

SC, you give them books and they'll just eat the covers...

What was causing the global warming in Spring of 1887?

Ok, the report I was reading was speculation by a English AGW'r and mainly talking about how UK winters would change. You could be right about the extremes, Anchorage almost got a record amount of snow last year.

Science Chic wrote: No, not on the model, but on the region. Some regions will get more snowfall than before, some will get less. The overall picture is that the weather will move away from being moderate, to experiencing more extremes. Here in the Rocky Mtns, we're predicted to get less snowfall, become drier, and have less and less snowpack to bail us out through the summer. It's already happening.

So let me see if I'm understanding you here. Because we had 0.1" less snowfall over a three month period than the previous low, it is proof of man induced climate change? How about Wyoming SC, they are part of the Rocky Mtns, as is Montana, New Mexico and Canada. Is this a local event or one that covers a 3000 mile long stretch along the meridian of the North American continent? Also, how much impact has urban sprawl had upon the immediate Denver Metropolitan area as we are adding acres and miles of concrete and asphalt? Might that have as much, or more, of an impact on snowfall in Denver than a global climate change?
