Niwa meteorologist Ben Noll says snowfall patterns in Canterbury have been affected due to warmer airflows and because of these snowball patterns, Fairlie's Fox Peak ski area is yet to open.
The club's president Alistair Millar says the weather patterns have been coming from the west. He said while they won't be making any profits this season, there won't be any financial implications on the skifield. Millar said they're hoping for a good dumping of snow in the next few days, but that was "wishful thinking".
"It's disappointing for the ones that have bought season passes ... but that's just the risk you take."

These classes help us as we age to retain lower body and core strength, remaining active to avoid falls.
No-one is bullet proof, falls happen and some can result in broken bones, pain and long healing times and can also make us fearful of falling again. Losing confidence can really affect quality of life.
Live Stronger for Longer strength and balance classes are growing nationwide. Visit www.livestronger.org.nz and join a class near you, you’ll find lots of practical information, advice and resources on how to live an active, healthy and independent life.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, MoH, HQSC and your local community health providers.
