Unusually warm temperatures forced Wintergreen Resort to end to ski season earlier than usual
WINTERGREEN, Virginia. — Wintergreen Resort is ending its ski season this weekend because it has been unusually warm for a few weeks in February.
This week, the temperature at Norfolk International Airport reached 81°, which beat the old record of 79° set in 1975 for the warmest February 23.
The resort said, “Despite our best efforts to keep the ski season going by making snow whenever we could, we’ve made the hard decision to end the 2022-23 winter season this Sunday, February 26 at 5:00 p.m.”
In December, the next ski season will start.
