I got snow on my keel! in New Orleans

Real snow in 'Nawlins. Must be global warming

I remember when I was a kid living in Slidell, we got about 1/2 to an inch maybe once. All but shut the city down. I remember thinking it was a little silly that we had to go pick mom up at work because she could not drive home.

Fast forward about 10 years, we were in Tulsa, and I was almost 17 with my less-than-one-year-old driver license... snowed in from school with an inch of ice and about 7 inches of powder on top of that and I was the one chosen to go get everyone something to eat. Just through the neighborhood, and why don't you take Dad's Ford Ranger! It's amazing how much my parents had changed.

I feel sorry for everyone that has to live in NO with snow. I get all antsy when I get snowed in (rarely here) and ya'll don't have much of a choice. I bet it's like a ghost town.

Reminds me one time I was in NC (Duke Univ) giving a talk... snowed 1-2 inches, and they closed the city.. no snow removal equipment at all.. anywhere! My colleague from Buffalo could not stop laughing. : )

Oh, one thing about "Global warming"; as we all know ,that term has been very politicized over the last several years, as well as contrasted to "climate change". From a scientific standpoint, the global weather changes are "change" not necessary "warmer". Higher highs, lower lows, more extreme weather, faster changes of weather.... So, YES, snow in NO is part of global warming/climate change.

Yep, we had snow in southwest Louisiana also.  I remember the Christmas snow of 2004.  We were in New Orleans at Childrens Hospital on Christmas Day 2004.

22 below zero this morning in the mountains above Lyons, Colorado.  Gotta love this "global warming" most of which comes from the hot air that politicians blow...

  Gm'me some of that snow, or I can't go skiing. Soldier Mountain Ski Resort east of Fairfield, Idaho, where I go skiing in winter, can't open until the 20th of December, because there is not enough snow. You guys are whuses when you see the first snowflake. People like me, look forward to snow for the first season of skiing.
