Re: Ski resorts affected by climate change
It's amazing. We can now ski in 39 of 50 states! What a winter to remember.

Travelers Advantage Says Ski USA: Hit the Slopes in 39 States
Monday January 29, 5:20 am ET
NORWALK, Conn., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Did you know you can ski in Iowa (but watch out for the cornstalks)? Or down south through Georgia and Alabama (dodge the peaches and peanuts)? In fact, you can ski in 39 of our 50 states! From Alaska to Vermont -- and lesser known Midwest and Southeast climes in between -- resorts are grooming the slopes, greasing the lifts and cranking up the snow machines for sky-high adventure on the peaks. So, grab your skis, snowboards and snowsuits and head for the mountains.
"As we glide into winter and slalom into the big snow skiing season, it is hard to believe that we have such a great variety of exciting mountain resorts in America," said Leslie Downey, director of communication for Travelers Advantage and Travelersadvantage.com. "In fact, ski moguls and snowbunnies can catch a drift in 80 percent of the states in the U.S."

We can now ski just about everywhere. Even Miami sounds cold tonight. I wonder if they will get snow too!
