Alex Hill, chief government advisor with the Met Office, said the amount of snow in the Scottish mountains had been decreasing for the last 40 years and there was no reason for the decline to stop.
He added: “Put it this way, I will not be investing in the ski-ing industry.

The ski industry in Scotland may be in trouble, because there is so much snow in southern England that most Brits can do winter sports in their own neighborhood and don’t need to go all that way to experience snow.
In reality, the Scots just had their best ski season EVER!
They have a nice ski hill in Bracknell west of London. The hill is covered with concrete and teflon. If you fall down, you are almost guaranteed to break your wrist.
The lack of snow was blamed on global warming. The return of snow was also blamed on global warming. 😉

I will not be investing in the ski-ing industry
If people in the investment industry had asininely put their trust in computer models the way the Met Office does, we would have already experienced a worldwide financial crisis of immense proportions!

LOL!
