California experienced rare blizzard warnings and record low temperatures in late February 2023, with snow falling in the Oakland Hills and Mount Tamalpais.

A retrospective look at the 1970s reveals a period where the media and scientists warned of an impending ice age. Clips from the 1978 program "In Search Of," narrated by Leonard Nimoy, illustrate the fear-mongering of that era regarding "arctic cold" and "perpetual snow." The hosts point out that many of the same experts who warned of cooling eventually shifted to warming as the primary funding source changed.

News outlets attempted to link Hurricane Sandy to a "freak" blizzard in Snowshoe, West Virginia, to bolster the global warming narrative.
