If the snow holds up well till New Year or if there is another storm, you can ski in Encamp. There is a gondola called Funicamp that links the town to Grandvalira ski resort. This is your best option. Another option would be to drive or take the bus to Vallnord Ski area.

I have to report spring snow conditions in grandvalira. Cold enough at night for the cannons to do their thing and the busy areas to be patched up.
Snow to slide on but snow required!

No snow in the forecast for the next 7 days and mild temperatures for next week. Maybe a storm hits Andorra on the 29th but can't count on a forecast more than 5 days.

Good to hear that temperatures are at least good to make some snow at night.

Huge cold front will hit Europe for 2-3 days beginning on the 31st. But the models are predicting that its going to miss the pyrenees and hit hard on the Alps, especially the northern part. Let's pray for that to change and bring some snow for Andorra too, because after that, a huge high pressure and warm system will take place again for a long period.
