Merry Christmas All! May the one and only God, Creator of all things, Bless You All on the day that we celebrate the birth of His Son and Our Savior Jesus Christ.
There are some small tweaks to today’s schedule at some resorts so let’s dive right in.
Appalachian Ski Mountain is CLOSED today to allow all of the family and staff to celebrate Christmas with their families. How cool is that? Nice touch Brad and family. They made snow last night and will again this evening so conditions will be sweet on Wednesday.

Wolf Ridge Ski Resort is Closed today as well. They will reopen on Wednesday morning for skiing, snowboarding and tubing. Nice touch Orville, Rick and family.
WHITE CHRISTMAS…NIGHT!
The forecast seems to be hinting that some areas of the mountains…particularly the higher elevations (above 3500 ft)…may see up to 1" of snow this evening and into Wednesday morning. Areas lower than that may see some light rain overnight.
Wednesday and Thursday look nice for the North Carolina mountains with seasonal highs in the low to mid 40s and overnight lows around freezing. Friday looks a bit wet at this time, but Saturday is now shaping up to be dry during the day. That is good news to Holiday skiers!
Sunday may bring a sprinkle or two but then Monday is looking nice and dry as well.
