Posted on Monday 22nd January 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Zao Now report can be found here.
Unfortunately, we ended up getting rained on yesterday, and for a fair time too. That's not going to help the snow.
This morning the fog is low and dense on the mountain early on, and weather conditions might affect some lifts. (There are some brighter areas in places at time of report).
Looking ahead we can expect colder temps from tomorrow and snow this week, particularly around Wednesday.
