24 deg now and just under 2" snow might get out of the 20s. One ski operation in the area shut down for the season the other is cashing in nicely

Got down to 30°F here this morning.  I hope the fruit trees are not yet blooming, but a lot of stuff already is.

I've suggested before a focus on shuttering coal plants, and building zero new ones, at least in the US.  That would provide some benefits even if climate change has been exaggerated.

That would be the idea, replace coal with nukes of standard design so you don't have to go through long approval processes aside from location.  The SMR concept might be a way to go also.  The Vogtle 3 plant is starting up now.
