“So much for global warming then!” says Hans. “Aah, yes, of course snow is also caused by global warming, silly me!”
“It’s happened before and will no doubt happen again,” “but it’s always newsworthy.”

As an aside to this there was a report that came out saying that more of the Earth is experiencing extreme heat. When I look at the temps around the world, though, I don’t see much evidence. Of course its hot in the Northern Hemisphere! Its SUMMER!
You want to know the irony of this unprecedented snowfall.
I was talking to an American visitor the other day and he said he had seen chemtrails in the western cape. He was certain.
