The point is that ski resorts have had troubles not just this autumn (which was the warmest recorded since there are accurate measures in Europe) but that since more than a decade, the average temperature has been very high and thus, the amount of snow was insufficient.
It is also thought that an increase in the average number of extreme climatological events is a sign of a global climate change.
