The Mid-Atlantic ski forecast is largely mild and dry, with little natural snow potential. A few rain showers affect parts of Pennsylvania and the western mountains today, while Wisp has a chance of scattered sprinkles or flurries. Higher-elevation areas such as Snowshoe, Timberline, Canaan Valley Resort, and Wisp remain coolest, with daytime highs mostly in the 30s and 40s today before warming Sunday.
Sunshine dominates Sunday through Veterans Day, but temperatures climb into the 50s and 60s across most of the region, reaching the upper 60s around lower-elevation areas such as Liberty Mountain and Massanutten. Colder nights arrive intermittently, especially Monday night into Tuesday morning, when readings fall into the upper 20s and 30s in parts of Pennsylvania and the higher terrain. Those lows could offer limited snowmaking temperatures, but the overall warm, dry pattern is not favorable for building or preserving a base.
