First valley snow is expected today

As much as our legislature and current governor wish it not to be so, the science is in and the conclusion is that climate change will effect everyone one of us in profound ways, not just those who live in low-lying areas. Utah ski resorts know that climate change will mean a shorter season on average and less overall snow. Hunters will be impacted by the change in range and diet of deer and elk. Lumber will be impacted by climate change as well.
And our health has already been negatively impacted by this massive carbon output. You can literally drive into the smog and Utah Lake is unusable. Sticking our heads in the sand and saying dumb things like global warming isn't real every time a cold front is predicted is foolhardy to the extreme.
Enjoy it. Don't fret over it. It will be here for a much longer time, than now.
The ski resort operators are likely the big winners, when it snows early, anyway.
I do have my shovel at the ready. ...
So no one can say I was not prepared.
One day of snow does not prove global warming is false any more than one day of record heat does not prove it is true. You tried your joke, it wasn't funny, now move on.
