<title>Lack of &quot;white Christmas&quot; could leave ski resorts in the red</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/18955/20111216/lack-of-quot-white-christmas-quot-could-leave-ski-resorts-in-the-red</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Dec 16, 2011) For those in the skiing business, this year’s relatively warm temperatures and lack of snow are spelling trouble. Ski areas typically open around Thanksgiving and when there’s no snow on the ground, they make it.But it’s been too warm for snowmaking. Ideally, it should be about 10 degrees. So many areas in the northeast have been forced to delay opening. Others have been operating at reduced capacity. And that’s hurting the bottom line.
