Snow

We've been having some crazy weather this winter for SoCal.  Actual winter.  It seriously snowed in Malibu (the canyon and at 1500ft elevation) the other week.  I mean strange.

This is a link to the ABC News twitter page showing the snow in Malibu.

It has been an unusually wet and cold winter for us.  There is an El Nino (forgive the missing tilde) sitting in the Pacific causing all our wet weather.

The cold is something else and who knows why it is so cold this winter for SoCal.  Global (global, people, the entire globe, not your specific block, nor neighborhood, nor zip code, nor area code, nor county, nor state, not even your country. . .) warming--maybe? A 10 year (or so) cycle--again maybe?  Something else, quite possibly.

The great news is that we're getting all kinds of snow up in the Sierras.  Mammoth Mountain is having a similar winter as their 2016/2017 season.  They were open until July in 2017.

Unfortunately, like 2017, we're supposed to have a hot summer.  Again, global warming. . .10 year cycle. . . Something else?  I have no idea, but that's what Farmer's Almanac is saying for California and they tend to get it right.

So, yay, snow and cold for now.  I'm actually looking forward to the summer too.  WOO!

Until the next time, keep it rubber side down.
