Climate Change Australia – Skiing On Snow They Said Wouldn’t Fall

Australia does not have very high mountain ranges, and as we are closer to the Equator, the weather is always quite warm, and that combined with the low mountain tops means that any snow season we do have here is usually of quite a short duration. That’s why this article is the anomaly instead of the norm, as, being in the Southern Hemisphere, Winter has finished and we are now into Spring, and snow in Spring is not only a rarity, but almost unheard of…..TonyfromOz.

In May 2008, the CSIRO’s warmists warned of vanishing snow:

Scientists say Australian skiers should prepare for shorter ski seasons because of global warming… CSIRO climate change expert Dr Penny Whetton says Australia’s mountain snow cover could be reduced by up to 54 per cent by 2020.

Today:

SPRING snowflakes have contributed to the best snow season in a decade, which will be extended until the end of the October school holidays…

The official snow depth was measured at 204 centimetres at Spencers Creek, just outside of Perisher. Perisher’s chief executive, Peter Brulisauer, said more than 400 centimetres of natural snowfall this season had created the best skiing conditions in 12 years.
