Are you saying that "Global Warming" has forced all the snow to Hawaii because the rest of the world is too hot? I suppose that is one way of justifying it.

No, I'm saying you can't look at the weather for a single location and call the result "global". Would you look at housing prices in Manhattan and call that "global"?

Let's get back to global warming. Last night we had 6 to 8 inches of snow dumped in our area. Apparently there was similar weather in Hawaii. I'd call that "Global" wouldn't you?

Also, you are conflating precipitation with warming.
The spiel that I hear is that warmer air holds more moisture.
More moisture => more precipitiation. If temps are below freezing, that means more snow.
Now you ruined it. I could have had her going for at least a couple days. :-(
