For a planet that has a fever, this has certainly been a cold year. In New Zealand, where it is currently winter, they have the largest snow base ever. Not since global warming started…ever:
Mt Ruapehu is claiming the biggest snow base ever recorded for a New Zealand skifield with over 4.5m of snow on the ground.
Ruapehu Alpine Lifts, operator of Mt Ruapehu ski area, was celebrating what it called a major milestone today.
The snow measuring stake at Turoa previously only stood at 380cm so had to be extended to measure today’s 455cm snow base.
Seems a bit odd to have record snow when the world has a fever, doesn’t it?
