Then you've never looked. Go do that, and stop embarrassing yourself talking about snow.
You know what you need for record snowfall? Higher than average levels of moisture in the air. You get that from evaporation...something water doesn't exactly do when it's cold. All of your personal anecdotes about seeing sooo much snow, are very literally an affirmation of warming, not an argument against it. Cold air is arid, warm air is humid. When the two meet, voila, it dumps tons of the white stuff. The trouble isn't snowfall...climate change predicts more severe blizzards and snowstorms. The problem is the temperature..and in alaska..it's going up twice as fast as in the lower 48.
We're running out of soil too.....dangers abound. Yet here we sit, spending money trying to figure out how many mexicans voted for Hitlery.

Climate change? Fucking trifle compared to the full up disaster the decline in alkalinity of the oceans is going to cause. Now THAT is going to be the big cluster fuck. No aspect of climate change will be as bad as the smallest effects of the change in acid/base balance of the sea water.
