The Gospel According to Saint Al said that snow was a thing of the past. Looks like somebody forgot to tell Mother Nature.
“This entire winter season has really been an embarrassment of snow riches for several ski resorts throughout California especially around Lake Tahoe,” according to Weather.com. “Three Tahoe resorts, Sierra-at-Tahoe, Sugar Bowl and Squaw Valley, have reported that their season snow totals now exceed 600 inches. That’s more than 50 feet of snow!”
Puh-leeze. These are not photos of snow. They are photos of extreme weather conditions brought on by worldwide climate change.

Big deal, you say, it’s not unusual for snow level to reach mid-window at Mammoth Mountain. Then you find out this is a third story window.
