From the Yad Moss website:
22nd December - The tow has been running today and it is our intention to open on Wednesday from around 10.30 a.m. There has been fresh snow but cover is variable with good depth in some places but thin in others. However, owing to the frozen base beneath, even the thin areas are quite skiable, giving reasonable conditions overall.
From the Lake District Ski Club (Raise) site:
Great news. The tow did operate on Tuesday 22nd
It will run tomorrow Wednesday 23rd.
In the meantime, here in Glos the rain turned to sleet then to snow causing more traffic chaos on the Cotswolds. The hill at the back of my house is looking more inviting for a few turns!

it rained last night for an hour, but it has not shifted the snow and only served to put a sheet of ice across the snow on the back roads.
Main roads are clear here, but slightly further north in the county there were 40 accidents last night and 1 death sadly.
Forecast is for another foot of snow overnight. My BIL is in Birmingham and coming over, said its throwing it down with snow in the west mids.

It's mid afternoon Xmas eve...
I'm about 15 miles east of Stansted.
The snow is nearly all gone and not much ice left on the roads / paths.
There is no worries about flights from Stansted (unless things change).
I'm off to Flaine via Geneva in 3 weeks - only 8 working days left!!!!!!
