That's my layman's opinion. Numerous weather affecting factors coinciding to allow the multiple perfect snowstorms.

My dad was AF weather and we were assigned to Mass., the UP of Michigan and Germany so I had an appreciation for proper snow as winter precip. Having lived in the South since I've had a license however, I have never learned to drive on winter roads (except for the axoimatic advice to take it slow) so as beautiful as it was while falling, I was glad it had evaporated by the following evening. The 2010 events were similarly ephemeral and for that I was thankful. Having endoured mostly ice events since moving to North Texas in

I feel like many meteorologists feel as you do but, as you point out, they are not really able to voice an opinion because of who they work for. I certainly don't have the scientific knowledge you have but I do know we have had temperature cycles for many, many years. Keep up the good work of educating the public and encouraging people to research and think for themselves. Good to hear a voice of reason from someone in the weather community.
