Right now, it’s cold. But the weather on race day, well, it might be cold, too (but probably not this cold). In any case, we’ve compiled data for every race day since 1973, and discussed what the weather might be. The race, in an average year, starts in the mid-teens. But it’s still probably a good idea to plan ahead and pack lobster mitts, a buff and some wind briefs.

Stay warm and ski fast.
