Snow is forecast tonight but currently it is falling as rain in Stanhope and I am not too optimistic. The ground however is very hard still so if we do get a decent coverage overnight there is a possibility of skiing tomorrow but pelase look at the webcam tomorrow and check the answerphone before setting off. Some of the local roads around here are extremely icy and I suspect the road up to the slopes will also be very icy so take care. Winter tyres make a huge difference and as well as dramatically improving your grip on ice they reduce your stopping distance by almost 50% - why not treat yourself for christmas?
