Big snowstorms might be few and far between later this century as the climate warms, a new study released Monday suggests.

The study likely the first to identify and track individual snowstorm projections of the distant future.“The snow season will start later and end earlier."released Monday suggests.

“If we do little to mitigate climate change, the winter season will lose much of its punch in the future,” said study lead author“The snow season will start later and end earlier,” Ashley said. “Generally, what we consider an abnormally mild winter now, in terms of the number and intensity of snowstorms, will be the harshest of winters late this century."

Milder temperatures would not only reduce the number of snowstorms each year, scientists said, but the warmth would also reduce the size of the snowstorms when they do happen.Snowstorms in non-winter months will take the biggest hit, the researchers found, especially in fall and spring months of October, November and April.
