Rare snow blankets Acropolis in Athens
Snow is common in Greece’s mountains and in the north of the country, but much rarer in the capital, particularly heavy snow.

Exactly, higher temps means more water vapor in the air, resulting in more snow. If average temps go from 25 to 28F, for example, there will still be snow, just more of it, because of the carrying capacity of the atmosphere at the higher temp.View attachment 457905
But! But! Global warming!!!

Water is an even more potent GHG than CO2, Sunlight wouldn't get reflected, it would get absorbed, contributing to warming.No! More water vapor in the atmosphere means more sunlight reflected back into empty space meaning less sunlight reaches the surface of the earth thereby causing global cooling..... or as some of us refer to it an ice age.Exactly, higher temps means more water vapor in the air, resulting in more snow.

I was talking about CO2 and you're talking about snow. While snow may increase in places, the average rise in temps due to CO2 should prevent a "snowball earth".So you're saying that covering the earth in a big white shield won't reflect the sunlight? I must have missed something about the absorption of colors.. So in your world covering the world in black clouds will increase the reflection of sunlight? We're going to be in real trouble with global warming if it continues snowing and turns the world into a huge white absorption ball.Water is an even more potent GHG than CO2, Sunlight wouldn't get reflected, it would get absorbed, contributing to warming.
