As many people have probably noticed, the last few weeks has severely had a change in weather patterns. The La Crosse area went from relatively seasonal weather, to extreme cold and large amounts of snow. Weather changes like this cause someone like me to ask myself "Is global warming real?" Whether it is, or isn't real, something is seriously causing the weather change.
From what I remember from last year, we didn't have any snow that stayed on the ground until weeks after Christmas. And now, all of a sudden we're having below-zero temperatures, and mass amounts of snow. The La Crosse area accumulated about 18 inches of snow withing 48 hours. Which is amazing when you consider that we have probably gotten more snow within 48 hours this year, then we did the entire winter of 2009/10.
Since I participate in the immensely enjoyable activity known as snowboarding, I benefited from this snowfall. On the other hand, many people do not appreciate the snow as much as I do. It made it practically impossible to make it to work. But again on the other hand, it supplied more time to enjoy with ones' family.
