U.S. Drought Monitor Report released Thursday.
The drought has dramatically expanded recently. Thursday's drought monitor indicates that more than 98 percent of the state is in a drought, up from only 10 percent at the start of the year.
For most, a dry weather pattern took over in midsummer when the rains ended.
And little snow has materialized. The mountains have had barely 5 to 10 inches across most of the ranges. Denver has yet to see its first snow.
In Denver, the last snow was May 1. The number of days without snowfall is at 193 as of Thursday, the eighth-longest streak since 1948.
In 1992, Denver went 211 days without snow and 2016 might rival that record.
The latest measurable snowfall in Denver was Nov. 21, 1934 and that record might fall this year unless the persistent warm, dry weather pattern breaks down soon.
A weather pattern change will get underway later next week. It appears the mountains will benefit the most with snowfall.
For Denver, it remains to be seen snow will fall next week. At least the change coming offers better chances than anything seen since that last snow in May.
Look, folks, it's time people admitted one big fact that's going on in our skies. Don't pretend the drought in the southwest US is a mystery. By this time, hardly anyone should be unaware that what is euphemistically called "climate change" by the elite is due, in large part, to the havoc wreaked by the US government geoengineering program, which has been aggressively implemented in the United States and all NATO countries for the past 18 years. Geoengineering is largely carried out by particulate emissions in jet contrails, sometimes called "chemtrails". These particulates, which some believe to be coal ash, cause overcast and drought. They also cause "sundogs" or irridescence in the sky. Chemtrails are dangerous to the world habitat. Many forests in the southwest U.S. have burned due to the drought they cause. Geoengineering is a deadly and oppressive government program. This is not some ridiculous conspiracy theory. Why do alternate media continue to cover this up? Are you insane?
