Colorado will look like a different state by 2080
Colorado is going to become hotter, dryer, and a lot less skiable in just a few decades, according to new research. The study, published in Earth and Space Science, used climate models to forecast the future of snow in Colorado, finding that the state is set to lose 50% to 60% of its snow by 2080, thanks to climate change-related drought conditions. Nearby states Wyoming and Utah are also likely to become less snowy and more arid, too.
