I think we had some light snow in north phoenix/scottsdale area a few years ago, but nothing this dramatic.

It would appear the weather trends have been being dramatically altered the last decade or two.

Is there any correlation between calling (part of) Arizona hell and John McCain?

I assume this could be called A Dramatic Turn of Events? :D

BTW, the thread title reminds me of the saying that hell will freeze over when Finland wins the Eurovision Song Contest - that happened in 2006 so it's probably been pretty cold down there for 7 years :biggrin:

We had snow on the surrounding mountains here, but nothing below 1000ft level. It's been decades since we've seen it at sea level.

No, don't!  It's more appropriate now than ever!

Ha there are a lot of correlations between hell and arizona, including John McCain... however, I'm probably in the minority thinking on that part.
