It’s of protesters at the Mount Hotham ski resort<\/a>, which has just announced its third season of above-average snow<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Hotham is extending the season once again! For the third consecutive year in a row, Hotham’s abundant snowfalls are allowing the resort to stay open until October 6, 2019. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This isn’t at all what the CSIRO predicted in 2003:<\/p>\n

The high impact scenario for 2020 leads to reductions of 30-40 days in average season lengths. At higher sites such as Mt Hotham, this can represent reductions in season duration of about 25%<\/strong>, but at lower sites such as Mt Baw Baw the reduction can be more significant (up to 60%)\u2026<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Remember those other dud predictions?<\/p>\n

In 2000, for instance, came this famous prediction<\/a> from the then centre of global warming alarmism:<\/p>\n

According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become \u201ca very rare and exciting event\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Children just aren\u2019t going to know what snow is,\u201d he said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Also in 2000, this prediction<\/a> from Professor Mojib Latif of Germany\u2019s GEOMAR Heimholtz Centre for Ocean Research:<\/p>\n

Winters with strong frosts and lots of snow like we had 20 years ago will no longer exist at our latitudes.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In 2008, another prediction:<\/a><\/p>\n

A study of snowfall spanning 60 years has indicated that the Alps\u2019s entire winter sports industry could grind to a halt through lack of snow…. In some years the amount that fell was 60 per cent lower than was typical in the early 1980s, said Christoph Marty, from the Swiss Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research in Davos, who analysed the records.<\/em><\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t believe we will see the kind of snow conditions we have experienced in past decades,\u201d he said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Uber-Greenie Mark Lynas told us in 2004<\/a>: .<\/p>\n

Snow has become so rare that when it does fall \u2013 often just for a few hours \u2013 everything grinds to a halt.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here’s what George Monbiot had to say about winters and climate change back in 2005<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Winter is no longer the great grey longing of my childhood. The freezes this country suffered in 1982 and 1963 are \u2013 unless the Gulf Stream stops \u2013 unlikely to recur.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But the US has had one of the snowiest decades in recorded history<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The last decade stands out like a sore thumb! It has had 29 major impact northeast winter storms with NO previous 10-year period with more than 10 storms! In Boston, 7 out of the last 10 years have produced snowfall above the average 43.7 inches.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
