💨 Abstract

In December 2025, Western U.S. ski resorts are struggling due to unusually warm temperatures and lack of snow, affecting tourism and water supply. Meanwhile, the Midwest and Northeast are experiencing record snowfall. In the West, attractions like ice palaces and sleigh rides are impacted, and there are concerns about drought and wildfires. Climate scientists emphasize the need to limit global warming. In contrast, the Northeast is enjoying excellent skiing conditions.
