Written from the blend, the model spread and the storm calendar · updated 01:23 UTC

Two pulses with a quiet day between: snow from Friday the 25th, a pause, then the heavier half peaking Wednesday the 30th at about 10cm. Four of seven models cover the window and they still disagree on totals, which is why this reads Watching rather than Likely.

If you can only do three nights, take the 24th to the 27th: you ski about 12cm of it. If you want the whole storm, the 24th to the 4th covers it, and two curated stays have nights free inside it from $170 a night. We re-check every hour until you go and post the receipt after the storm.
