Living next to a low elevation resort this makes me quite sad.

Climate Change will also impact other snow sports:

The future of backcountry skiing (at least in the alps) will be to drive up a mountain pass, get on a E-Mountainbike, drive up ~300m of elevation and then begin skinning.

Nordic skiing (where you need road access and a lot of flat-ish surface) will only be possible in a few quite elevated valleys without much sun.
