In South America, Chile and Argentina have already seen historic early-season snowfalls at high elevations, and another round of intense snow is on the way. Valle Nevado, among other prominent resorts, announced an early opening last week thanks to these early storms. The original opening was slated for June 21st, an understandable date when considering yearly storm patterns in the Andes Mountains. However, storms at the end of May allowed them to bump opening day up to June 7th. It takes multiple feet of snow to allow a resort to shift its opening that dramatically. As the season is just taking off, these resorts are bracing for a second wave of miraculous moisture.
