Plus temperatures of the last days will be maintained throughout the week. However, on Christmas night, the minimum will reach -17 degrees Celsius. Meteorologists say that it will snow. So the ski slopes remain empty due to warm weather.  

"Unfortunately, snow is not expected this week. Even if it will snow, the amount will be very small" , said the meteorologist Ghenadie Rosca.

The lack of snow has disappointed the owner of a ski slope in Nisporeni town. 

"We are still waiting for snow to fall" , said the owner of a ski slope, Nicanor Armasaru.

Even if the weather was against him, the owner has thoroughly prepared the slope for the ski season.

"I bought a tractor, skis, sleds, suits" , said the owner of the slope.

The tractor was bought three years ago in Austria with an investment of 15,000 euros.

Nicanor Armasaru says that in previous years the business was going well with over 200 people visiting the slope daily.

To save his business, Nicanor will buy artificial snow cannons.

The ski slope in Cioresti has been opened eight years ago.
