Global Warming Update (XL)

Mrs. Gregoire was on KUOW yesterday talking about her "final Climate Advisory Team report and the state's plans for dealing with global warming moving forward".

Meanwhile:

Washington's three major mountain pass highways all closed Friday afternoon because of foul weather and avalanche danger, the first time Snoqualmie, Stevens and White Passes have been closed simultaneously in more than 11 years.

Officials began to worry that their two-year snow-and-ice removal budgets might run over because of the unusually nasty weather in the passes.

Not to make light of global warming or anything, but shouldn't Mrs. Gregoire's Climate Advisory Team also have a state plan for dealing with the climate that we already have?
