Snow Reporter’s Message
Howdy Sierra Fam!
Today, expect rain showers with a 70% chance of precipitation and wind gusts up to 29 mph. Snow chances tomorrow and through the weekend will depend on colder temps—so keep those snow dances, prayers, and manifestations coming. We’ll take all the help we can get!
Our Opening Day for the 2025/26 season is still TBD, but you can count on us to share updates the moment we know more. We’re just waiting on Mother Nature to deliver colder temperatures so we can fire up snowmaking and get things rolling.
While we’re all dreaming of those first turns, now’s the perfect time to lock in your 2025/26 Season Pass or 3-PAK—so you’re ready to shred the second the lifts start spinning! —Sara
