i keep getting snowmails to tell me how cold it is in St Moritz and how much more snow is forecast. Looks to me like this is a place to go all season and not be worried about conditions.
I have to say that mid Jan it was utterly fabulous in terms of great snow and cold temps when other places were really struggling, and I'd return there purely on that basis alone.

Engelberg, (yet again) big snowfall. The guys at the Ski Lodge must have been doing their snowdancin 24/7 8)

Vallee Blanche can be a good bet for a bit later, crevasses will be visible quite soon. Now when they are still covered it can be dangerous as snow bridges will be thin. Still Chamonix might be the best bet as it's the closest to GVA. I would avoid Villars, not sure what conditions it is reporting, but I know someone working there and conditions are quite poor, it's simply not high enough. Reports on this sight rarely match the reality.

St. Moritz is a long way from GVA to go there for couple of days. But yeah, North-East of the country was more lucky in terms of snow this season.
