"Violent Late-Spring Snowstorm Blasts Scotland, Buries the Higher Elevations"

 Source:

"Scots are suffering a rare late-spring Arctic blast this week as an unusual chill continues to engulf the majority of the European continent.

Inches upon inches of rare and record-breaking late-May snow settled across the higher parts of Scotland, with additional and exceptionally rare flurries descending on low-lying areas, too.

The UK Met Office issued weather warnings for the north and central areas of the country as this meridional jet stream induced weather–caused by low solar activity– continues to dominate.

More than 4 inches is estimated to have fallen over a vast area during a seven hour blast of inclement weather.

While a warning on the Met Office website yesterday read: “An area of snow is currently extending southwards from the Highlands to reach the Central Belt towards dawn … accumulations of snow of 3 cm (1.2 inches) below 150 m (492 ft) is possible.”

Traffic Scotland Twitter reported whiteout conditions across some Scottish roads.

This ‘global warming goodness’ is Scotland’s latest extreme cold event in what has been a bitterly chilly first 5 months of the year.

Winter delivered consistent sub-zero temperatures and prolific bouts of heavy snow in what inthesnow.com called “one of the longest spells of cold snowy weather this century.”

And even now, with summer just around the corner, the record cold and snow is persisting.

Britain remains on track to log one of its coldest May’s in recorded history, while the month has already gone down as the snowiest ever, busting the old benchmark set in 1979."

... senior climatologist Dr David Viner of the Climate Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia ... Back in 2000, reported at the time by the Telegraph (since deleted): within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event,” adding that “children just aren’t going to know what snow is.”

Well, here is some UK snow for you, Viner, in late-spring of the year 2021, no less:

May snow, Scotland:

Frustratingly, hacks such as Viner are never called to task.

Their mistakes and dud-research are seldom analysed or investigated.

Instead, the cycle is simply one of rinse and repeat: the global warming cabal call-up their next set of “higher-educated” brain washees who go on to use the exact same flawed upside down pyramid built on the work of just a few climate modelers to make the exact same tired-old doomsday predictions.

Global snowpack is actually increasing.

According to NASA, it has been increasing for the past 40 years.

... ‘End of Snow’ prophesies are just more AGW propaganda, plain and simple — they are not based in fact.:
