Hawaii expected to get 3 feet of snow. You read that right.

By Nate Brown  Published: December 4, 2016

Hawaii’s highest peak could get up to another foot of snow Sunday, on top of the 2 feet that have fallen since Thursday, the National Weather Service says.

A winter storm warning is in effect for the summits of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea through Saturday evening.

“Then we’re expecting another round on Sunday and Sunday night,” said Matthew Foster, a staff meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Honolulu.

The initial storm started on Thursday and was slowing down Saturday, “though some freezing drizzle is still possible,” Foster said.

The next storm is currently about 400 miles west of the island of Kauai and should arrive over the islands sometime on Sunday, Foster said.

“This one won’t be quite as strong when it moves over the Big Island, so we’re putting it as possibly 12 more inches of snow,” he said.

Interesting times we are in. When ever I try to tell people that man made global warming is not real. I can tell that they think that I am crazy. The people that think that I am crazy for thinking that global warming is fake I pray for them that they will wake up and shall know that Jesus Christ is there lord and savior.
