Climate change can actually bring increased levels of precipitation in some places. Climate and weather are two very different things and the latter depends on a whole complicated spectrum of factors. It's not necessarily "world getting warmer = less snow." Some areas will actually get more at some points if the conditions line up.

don't worry, it's only the new normal for this year, next year will be a whole new (even warmer) mystery
