Where's the weather and snow talk
Usually this place is awash with post and counter-post about when it's
going to snow, when it last snowed, how much it snowed, whether resort A or resort B has better snow, etc. Where's it all gone? I'm off to Tignes on 23rd Dec - come on guys, depress/elate/confuse me! -- Champ |

Zermatt was great t'other w/e, but we're not going again until xmas. But yes, there would seem to be plenty of snow around just about everywhere. 3.5 weeks and counting down for me :-) Poor you ;-) Ten days is long enough. -- Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) Ski Club of Great Britain - http://www.skiclub.co.uk All opinions expressed are personal and in no way represent those of the Ski Club. |

Already been, to Limone, which is now our "local" hill, 90 minutes away. It's OK for a couple of days at a time, and a nice feel to it. Be interesting to see what it's like fully open, with a load of snow, midweek - probably like Gressoney where you could get freshies days after the last snowfall. |

Another 50cm at least forecast for the next few days, don't know where I'll go this weekend though, too many choices |

Felly sgrifennodd h23 :
Ok then, anybody know the situation in Andermatt? (next week...) Swiss DRS TV online is forecasting snow from this Friday to Monday (at least). I suspect it will be good; I'm hoping so. From what I gather, generally there's snow everywhere, but not the depth that they'd like yet. Are you going to be skiing the Gemsstock or Naetschen? When are you there until? I may bump into you...
