Places with no snow

So, I guess Hartford isn't the only place that suffers from a lack of snow.

I was reading Jill Homer's blog, where she's giving some play by play on the Alaska Ultrasport (Iditarod for bikes), and she's describing the lack of snow in a section of this year's race. While global warming is obvious a hoax (just kidding!), that image gives a skeptic pause.

It's also weird to read that a lack of snow makes the race even more difficult (See Feb. 27).
