Mid-Atlantic Skiers' Forecast
A wet pattern dominates the region, with showers affecting many mountains through Thursday and occasional thunderstorms possible today and Monday. Lower-elevation areas near Washington and Baltimore warm into the upper 70s or low 80s today, while northern Pennsylvania and the higher terrain are generally cooler. Fog and reduced visibility are possible, especially during periods of rain.
The wettest and coolest stretch favors western and higher-elevation areas, including Canaan Valley Resort, Timberline, Wisp, and Snowshoe, where highs fall into the 50s by Wednesday and showers remain frequent. Gusty conditions may develop Tuesday into Thursday, particularly around Wintergreen and the Allegheny mountains. Eastern Pennsylvania has some partial sunshine Monday and Wednesday, but otherwise sees recurring showers and damp mountain weather.
