The remark was about the INCREASED AMOUNT of snow.
Not about snowfall in general.
INCREASED AMOUNT of snow from when? One of the most insightful observations I have heard about the whole global warming/global climate change narrative was that it flows intrsincally from the sheer narcisism of the baby boomer generation.
The very notion that the worlds climate should be static, that it should always be as the boomer generation recalls it from some moment in their on lifetimes is the fundamental flaw in their basic assumption.
Long before the industrial revolution, indeed long befoe anything remotely resembling human civilization dawned, the planet has seen such wide ranges of climate change to make even the most wild predictions of the global warming crowd look like changes of the seasons in comparison.
The deserts of the Middle East were once lush and green. much of the western hemisphere which is today densely populated was covered in year-round icesheets. All of these things came and went long before any possibility of it being man's doing.
Even the notion that records temperatures have any real meaning other than a momentary novelty. The very root of the word undercuts their historical significance....RECORD, as in RECORDED. As though what happened before us has no relevance to our baseline understanding and perspectives.
