A warm, wet start gives way to a cooler but still mostly dry weekend. Rain chances are highest today and Saturday across the eastern resorts, while higher terrain in West Virginia and western Pennsylvania could see isolated rain/snow showers Saturday. Timberline, Canaan Valley Resort, Laurel Mountain, Hidden Valley, and Seven Springs are the most likely spots for a few flakes, but meaningful natural snow is not expected.
Sunday through Tuesday trends sunnier, with highs mostly in the upper 40s to upper 50s in the mountains and 60s farther east. Overnight lows generally fall into the 30s, occasionally near freezing at higher elevations, offering only marginal potential snowmaking temperatures rather than a dependable window. Snowshoe stays notably cooler, with highs near 38 Saturday and 47 Sunday, while areas near Philadelphia and Washington, including Bear Creek and Liberty Mountain, warm into the upper 50s and 60s.
