A rare snowstorm blanketed the Las Vegas Valley on Wednesday, delaying flights, causing widespread fender-benders and canceling events. More than 6inches of snow had fallen in parts of the valley, forecasters said.
The rarities continued Wednesday night with the Clark County School District's announcement that students are getting a snow day on Thursday. It's the first snow day for Clark County students since 1979, when a storm dropped 9.9 inches of snow in January that year.
1979. The end of the 1940's-1970's cool period. Snow in Vegas, Houston, New Orleans, lots of snow in Seattle, Portland. Ice storms in the Northeast. And its not even winter yet. Perhaps another cool period is upon us?
