Winter Olympics need snow or ice for the events. Summer olympics have several outdoor events or ones where competitors wear skimpy clothes, like beach volleyball or swimming. If the two olympics clash, competitors will either freeze to death or collapse in a sea of water (melted ice). Common Sense.
It became to expensive to have both Olympics in the same year so the split schedule was devised.

Yes, in 1992 and 1994. Up to 1992, the Winter Olympics and Summer Olympics were held in the same year. The International Olympic Committee decided to split the Winter and Summer Games by two years in the hopes of getting more attention for the Games since they would be held two years apart instead of in the same year. To do this, they scheduled the Winter Olympics for 1994, two years after the 1992 Winter Olympics and kept the Summer Olympics scheduled for 1996, four years after the 1992 Summer Olympics. 1992 and 1994 is the only time the Winter Olympics were held two years apart.
