• TBD if any resorts remain open beyond April 7th

Snow Chances Friday, March 29 to Sunday, April 7

North Shore Lake Superior

What an excellent past few days on the slopes for the region, with daily refreshes and powder turns! 

• Mont du Lac has announced a bonus day on Saturday!
• Lutsen and Giants Ridge are open daily through April 7
• Loch Lomond has announced a bonus weekend from Friday to Monday I believe
• Mount Baldy open Friday-Sunday

Friday - Saturday: Snow remains likely Friday night into Saturday AM with a couple possible for the resorts spinning the lifts on Saturday. The best chance for 2" if not a little more will be for Giants Ridge and Lutsen.  The Thunder Bay resorts will be on the northern edge of the steadier snow, but a little refresh is possible. 

Sunday and Beyond: Models have trended further south with the system early next week followed by warmer temps and spring-like conditions on the slopes. It remains uncertain who will be open after April 7th in this region, if anyone. 

South Shore Lake Superior

• Mount Bohemia announced bonus days Saturday-Monday
• Snowriver may have a bonus day next weekend, otherwise, April 1st will be their last day of the season per their website
• Ski Brule plans to be open April 6-7 in addition to this weekend
• Searchmont does not have any scheduled dates after Monday, April 1st per their calendar

Friday - Saturday: A rain/snow mix remains likely with a little bit of new snow possible for Snowriver, Ski Brule, and Mout Bohemia for Saturday when the lifts spin. The snow likely does not arrive until during the day and/or evening at Searchmont on Saturday, so a little fresh snow could be had on Saturday and/or Sunday. 

Sunday and Beyond: Rain/snow mix early next week now likely remains to the south of the region for the most part with a warming trend next week.  

Twin Cities Region

• Andes Tower Hills, Trollhaugen, Wild Mtn, and Buck Hill have announced bonus days!
• Rain/snow mix Friday PM into Sat AM (most will fall while lifts are not spinning)
• Afternoon temps in the 30s and 40s on Friday and Saturday
  • These warm temps will make for soft spring-like conditions 
• Bonus days beyond this weekend are in limbo as it looks mild next week

Central and Southern Wisconsin

• Granite Peak open through the 7th

Friday-Saturday: A wintry mix is likely Friday night into Saturday AM with some freezing rain possible for Granite Peak. The freezing rain could cause a minor delay to lifts spinning but I do not expect it to be a significant delay as temps warm above freezing on Saturday. 

Sunday into Next week: Mild, afternoon temps warming into the 40s most days to start next week. A chance of rain/snow mix is possible on Monday. The end of next week could be quite mild, with 50s likely, if not warmer. These warmer temps will provide soft, spring-like turns most if not all days on the slopes. 

Northern Lower Michigan

• Nub's Nob's last scheduled day will be March 31
• Crystal Mtn Daily through April 1st 
• Boyne Mtn tentatively open daily through April 7th

Friday: Firm and fast in AM, softer by PM as temps climb into the upper 30s

Saturday: Snow showers likely, maybe some light rain mixes, with some light refresh possible

Sunday-Monday: Mild and spring-like with temps in the 40s during the afternoon with chances of rain/snow mix possible on Monday. 

I believe only Boyne Mountain will be open beyond Monday, but will confirm that over the weekend. 

The next forecast will be posted on Saturday - thanks for reading!

Southern Lower Michigan: All resorts are closed for the season
