I've booked a lodge for the week over xmas and new year with some pals so we can get a few days boarding in!

Wishful thinking or will there be snow?

Hi Oldelblerto, welcome to J2ski.

there is a pretty good chance for you. Keep your eye on:

The temperature just now is 1.6 deg, which is much colder than some of the alps. Wind is a factor, and there were 100mph gusts yesterday!

Ihave a Dec trip booked, so I amsure it will be great!
