I’m as blackpilled on climate change as anyone but this current shitshow has more to do with La Niña than anything IMO. Third one in a row. Look at the snow stake data the last time it was this persistent: 98-01. Also last year. Early winter is rotten as the jetstream dips and dumps out west. Then the trend flips, west enters a drought, and the Mansfield snow stake is deep AF come spring.

This warm spell is over mid-week and Wednesday is looking like freezing rain instead of more pissing hot rain. Monkey’s paw curls… be careful what you wish for. You’re gonna be sick of winter when a storm dumps 3 feet in March again. I guarantee it.

The intensity of these warm spells, and the increasing instability of the jetstream, is absolutely due to climate change, mind you. But what we’re experiencing right now is weather, not climate.
