#1 Snowfalls are just a thing of the past.

#2 No, this is EXACTLY what climate change extremists predicted! /sarcasm
Or, they'll say that events like this are just weather but a summer where the heat wave is one degree hotter than normal is PROOF of global warming.

#3 ...actually, within the statistical margin of error. That's what the pull for the 'warmest year on record' crap.

#4 and not just Salt Lake. 14F here in Boise the last couple of mornings also. Old timers here say that they see bears foraging more than usual. Local weather guys predicting an early winter.

AlGore must be in town.

#5 A few weeks ago, I read (here, of course) how the solar cycle indicated 2020-2050 might be the coldest in 400 years. All part of climate change.

#7 The micro climate at the temperature recording device at Peter Sinks lends itself to this sort of thing.

The site is at a low point in a high elevation (about 8000') valley. The hills around the site had fresh snow and the night was exceptionally dry with almost no wind. Perfect for cooling via radiation augmented by cold air drainage.

The radiosonde balloon released near Salt L City had the temperature about -5F at 8000' about that time.

back in Feb 1985, the temp at this station dropped to -69F on a similar night

#8 Look at all of our mad society's equivalents of earlier generations' foolishness - the contemporary versions of phrenology, bloodletting, the theory of physiological "humours," or treating schizophrenics with lobotomies:

Immunizations cause autism

"Gender Dysphoria," not simple depression, explains a young letson's desire to mutilate his/her body

"Whole Word" education is superior to phonics

Russian spies hacked a paper-based balloting system and swung the election of 2016

Climate patterns are driven by fossil fuel emissions

We are living through a period of stupidity, ignorance and mass hysteria unlike any seen in centuries..

#9 I'm pretty certain this untimely cold snap has something to do with Mittens Romney.

#10 Maybe is earth tilt thing and non perfect orbit around sun has merit. You tell me its going to be hotter in summer and colder in winter? ya don't say.
