Weekly Snow Report - Thursday 26 January

The week ahead

Hello,

Once again we can report the fall of heavy snow in many alpine areas. Last weekend in particular saw accumulations of around 1 metre (three feet) over several days, for parts of the French, Swiss and Austrian Alps. Since then clear weather has become the norm, with sunny skies and temperatures varying around the January averages.

Excellent skiing conditions are being reported from just about everywhere in the European Alps now with substantial bases.

Beyond the Alps, heavy snow has also been reported from South East Europe - Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania, etc.

European Weather and Snow This Coming Week

Further snow is expected over the next few days for just about the entire Alpine region, although the quantities are unlikely to equal those of a week ago. Some heavy falls are possible but they will likely be localized (as of this evening's forecasts, the Western Alps are looking good...).

A change to distinctly cooler weather is on the cards for the European Alps early next week, so pack your thermals!

The forecast models are also starting to indicate that early February is likely to be noticeably colder than now, with a possibility of more snow in around a weeks time.

Have fun and stay safe,
The J2Ski Team

Please forward this email to anyone who might be interested - thank you.

Stay Safe :- Big Snow means Big Avalanche Risk - make sure you always know and understand the local avalanche risk level before you ski or snowboard off-piste, take appropriate safety equipment and never go off-piste alone.

The Snow Reports in this e-mail are for information only. Mountain Weather Systems are notoriously chaotic and any forecast beyond 48 hours is only an indication.
