Brandywine and Boston Mills Ski Resorts Close Temporarily Due to Warmer Temps

It's raining in Northeast Ohio, and it seems the downpour is set to continue for the entirety of the week, the National Weather Service reports.

With the unseasonably warm temperatures headed our way (close to 70 degrees on Tuesday), Boston Mills, Brandywine and Alpine Valley resorts, all owned by Peak Resorts, are closing up shop today through Wednesday in an attempt to wait out the weather, preserve as much snow as possible and keep the season going. That means no practicing your Olympic-caliber ski or snowboarding runs for the time being, at nearby resorts anyway. You'll have to settle for watching on TV.

The ski resorts all plan to reopen by Thursday at 3:30 p.m.

Operations will be suspended Monday-Wednesday at Boston Mills | Brandywine | Alpine Valley. We are preserving snow to push through this adverse weather in an attempt to extend our season. . . In addition to Monday-Wednesday; Alpine Valley will also be closed Thursday. AV will reopen Friday at 1 p.m. . . Boston Mills | Brandywine will reopen Thursday, both resorts with a 3:30 p.m. opening time. . . We PROMISE to keep a clear and timely line of communication between our resorts and you through this adverse weather. Let’s push through so we can enjoy some spring-like skiing conditions on the other side 💥
