Global Warming Hysteria Watch: Ski Edition

So, who are we to believe? Global warming activists who claim that the ski industry as we know it will cease to exist because of global warming, or the fact that the ski resorts around the world have found themselves an abundance of snow at a time when the so-called experts claimed that they would face a rough season?
A lack of snow caused by global warming could be threatening the future of many ski resorts, according to scientists.

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development has warned of the eventual disappearance of some low-lying mountain resorts.


Here's the ski report from Colorado. Every resort is operating at or close to maximum open terrain. The same can be said for Vermont. And Maine. Utah.

And Washington and California and New York.

Maybe you prefer Canadian skiing? Resorts in British Columbia and Alberta are at or near full capacity.

For an industry that is supposedly on the brink as a result of global warming, there's plenty of that white stuff to go around and make for very good conditions for skiers and snowboarders.
