If you want snow, go to Colorado. They have had plenty this year.

that's the thingy, we don't know that much about the planet. we can't even predict the weather 7 days in advance, much less years. Like you whackos think you can.

I think it has been stated that the weather cycles are 22 years as are the sunspot cycles. At the end of the 1600s and the begining of the 1700s there wasn't any sun spots for a 70 year period. As the temperatures declined for these 70 years it was called the mini ice age. So even though the sun spot cycles has been recorded as 22 years it isn't a sure thing. In 2003 the most violent sun storms ever seen were recorded. The solar flares were seen as going out to the edge of our universe. The northern lights could be seen from as far south as the Florida Keys. Just remember the temperature of this planet has been most stable for the last 20,000 years than at any other time in the 5 billion years prior.
