Very much doubt it ....
Serre Chevalier in March (105 sleeps), a huge change for me! Somewhere new and different - looking forward to it.
Doubt I'll get another in this year but hey ho! Can't complain really.

Tignes - this morning on the Double M (Grande Motte to Val Claret)
Run pisted, marked, open and the chair working - all good signs.

I have received enlightenment .........
:mrgreen:
What this thread is really all about is permission to have the skis we all want!
:thumbup:
For the "owners" - obviously £1500 has become the reasonable budget for skis - enjoy !!
:lol:
For the renters - it is completely clear that we renters are saving a fortune - and should always go for the top of the range, this seasons, ski and swap several times during the week as we are so frugal compared to owners!
Job done.
Everyone happy.
Now - where's the white stuff?

I use these people for UK forecasts - they have been far more accurate than BBC and others.
http://www.meteox.co.uk
The forecast covers Europe and was spot on for the bit of snow and heavy rain in ski resorts recently.
The forecast is under "Regenvorherage Europa" which is top right picture on their page at the moment (but has moved around over the months).
Or direct is here - http://www.meteox.co.uk/forecastloop.aspx?type=1#
This is what they suggest for next Tuesday - promising as orange is bit lots of rain/snow!
