After our early season panic, parts of Europe now have 'more than half of last year's snow' already!

Well, Val D'isere has anyway.

Yay for late snow!

Which is lovely !
I think the "half of all last years snow" is very telling as this amount really sets up the base for the whole season.
Hope there is still planty to come through into January as lower resorts still need to get the base down on the resort level runs.

But ....
When is it too much and when should I be choreographing a no-snow dance??
:mrgreen:

Mind you that guy presenting needs some lessons! Hope he gets better as the season goes on. The girl last year was great for the weekly snow reports. A good up-beat voice even when the snow wasn't the best.

If they have so much on the uppers, can they not shift excess to the lowers? I would think the temps are below freezing now so shouldn't it in theory stay?

It is still raining down at resorts c 1200/1400m although the temp is now dropping significantly at lower levels.
A few days snow, a few days low temps and snow cannons and resort runs down to these levels will be up and running.
