Help with English Hi, there Should I say “I’d only be able to enjoy the snow this week if I was spending at least one week at the beach later or “I’d only be able to enjoy the snow this week if I spent at least one week at the beach later”? or "I’d only be able to enjoy the snow this week if I was going to spend at least one week at the beach later"? Between/among THESE three, which is right? Thank you

All three are correct, but 2 and 3 are better, as they refer to the beach trip using a tense which is future relative to the time you are in the snow, thus focusing on your thoughts about it at that time.

I think you should say:" I'd only be able to enjoy the snow this week if I spend at least one week at the beach later."
