No new snowfall is expected in the immediate future, and snow conditions will remain unchanged until midweek. Looking ahead, the weather will turn cooler and cloudier with rain showers likely on January 7 and 8, which may impact snow quality, as most models predict little to no new snow accumulation. Guests should plan for dry slopes and monitor forecasts for potential changes later in the week.

Snowfall over the past five years has been below the 30-year average, with a 5-year average of 33.5 cm compared to the long-term average of 42.2 cm, indicating a downward trend. However, the 2023 season was a significant anomaly, recording 75.5 cm—more than double the recent average and well above the 30-year norm. The current season's snowfall is 34% above the 5-year average and 7% above the 30-year average, primarily due to this outlier year. Overall, while recent years have generally seen reduced snowfall, occasional spikes such as in 2023 can temporarily reverse the trend.
