Snow storms tend to develop in regions where air masses clash, and this battle zone has shifted south lately as a result of an intrusion of very cold Arctic Air. El Nino is providing additional energy to the subtropical jet stream, and that energy is able to fuel storms across the southern part of the country while an upper level trough in the eastern half of the United States is keeping it cold enough for snow, while suppressing the storms too far south for areas that typically receive snow to get anything.
