A new report by KABC revealed that residents in and around the California tourist resort of Big Bear Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains have experienced zero snowfall — a sharp decline from the usual at this time of year. Instead, the precipitation that usually comes down as snow took the form of rain, which means temperatures in the mountains of Southern California just aren't low enough for the water vapor in the air to thicken and freeze.

With sharply reduced mountain snowpack, the region’s water supplies and winter tourism are facing mounting challenges, experts told ABC News.
"This winter, we've just had an extreme lack of storm activity, and the storms that we have had have either brought very small amounts of snowfall or have brought rain," Jon Meyer, assistant Utah state climatologist, told ABC News...
