Snow!
Started by User in Snow Forecasts and Snow Reports, 58 Replies
Well - a general covering of snow across French Alps, quite light but lovely to see.
Been trying to see how low down the snow went without much success. 1600m at least.
More forecast for tonight - and the forecasters got this one right thank goodness.
What's it like in Austria, Switzerland .... ???

I woke up this morning and before I got out of bed, I grabbed my phone to look at the web came?!?!

:roll:

On the question of illness - sorry but I am not qualified to comment even though I am very knowledgeable of psychiatric disorders :lol:

My only concern would be should you find yourself checking the webcam before you awake - be wary of this, it is a clear symptom and you should ......
1 - seek psychiatric help as an emergency
2 - just go skiing

Option 1 is undoubtably the cheaper option but option 2 has a higher success rate of "cure" on all the available evidence. Unfortunately the NHS/Medicare/Insurance providers do not recognise this and have frequently refused to pay for this "treatment" option.

The next band of precipitation - Gosh, that sounds nice "next band", sounds like more to come which is great.
....... is fast approaching the northern Alps (Haute Savoie) and should then spread across French Alps, Italian and Western Switzerland.
Might even see snow falling before the webcams close at dusk today.
Bigger dump still looking like Sunday night.
All very positive :thumbup:

High up will be fine - you may have too much, you never know!
Resorts runs are a bit more hit and miss but that is always the same before Christma.
