World Cup freestyle skiing competition scheduled for January is relocating from the western United States to the northeast because of what U.S. Ski & Snowboard called unseasonably warm weather.

The Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah, had been scheduled to host the aerials, moguls and dual moguls World Cup events. Temperatures there, however, have been in the 50s for 13 of the past 15 days, per AccuWeather, with highs in the 40s expected through the first week of January.

The aerials competition will move to Lake Placid, N.Y, on Jan. 11-12. The moguls will be contested Jan. 15-16 at Waterville Valley Resort in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

The forecast largely calls for highs in the teens and 20s over the next few weeks in the northeast, per AccuWeather.

'While this year's weather has created some challenges, our priority is ensuring athletes have the best opportunity to qualify for the Olympic Winter Games,' said Sophie Goldschmidt, president and CEO of U.S. Ski & Snowboard.

'We are grateful to both Lake Placid and Waterville Valley for stepping up quickly and collaboratively to find the best solution. At the same time, Deer Valley remains one of our most important and cherished partners. The legacy of hosting World Cups at Deer Valley is unmatched, and we look forward to returning to the resort next season.'
