5 Thoughts to “Record-Breaking Snow For The Alps; Zululanders See Surprise Spring Flakes; Mount Washington Registers Early First Measurable Snow; + Hurricane Dud”
There’s an odd looking structure in the picture labeled “Molltal Glacier, Austria.” My first thought was it looks like a boat or something supported on a pedastal, which would be silly.
I’m guessing it’s the lower terminus of a ski lift or tram car run.
Great reporting on the hurricanes’ history Cap.
Jay does simple math and gets that 2024 is just average.
Relit the pilot-flame on the furnace yesterday.
Arctic air cooled us right off this week.
Woke up with the house at 14C.
I picked up a used paperback copy of Geoffrey Parker’s “Global Crisis – War, Climate Change & Catastrophe In The Seventeenth Century”.
Parker’s epilogue reads, “It’s the climate, stupid”.
It should be an interesting read.
“Long range missiles bring stronger winter weather?”,

Tropical tidbits uses colours that only show total snow depth up to 110cm. http://www.metcheck.com/WEATHER/gfscharts.asp uses different colours that show total snow depth up to 200cm. They’re showing that parts of Austria could get at least 150cm or 5 feet of snow in the next 5 or 6 days. Given that forecast models are pretty accurate in the short term and become less accurate after 7 days or longer these sort depths are highly likely to occur.
956 detected huricanes in 173 years = a 5.5/year average.

Franny’s waves now 31 feet every 10 seconds. Those would sink the average boat. Flooding and power outages tonight won’t be too fun.
