It's the reason we planned the Early Bash for this week
We know God... well Stu does anyway. Or it could be the other guy. Never sure. |

this is quite a bit of a downgrade, as friday was showing 30+ before, just looked again and its even less now.
but, if '2cm' is whats fallen today, then 10cm should be very interesting!
that said, visibility is poor and probably will be until next week, although if the sun comes ou on monday/tuesday it should be pretty decent. |

It's quite a bit of an upgrade actually, the previous forecast showed around 72cm of snow during the week, that one shows around 91 I believe, it's just a bit more spread out
Edit: I also hear around 10-15cm is what fell on Tignes / Val during today and yesterday |

Plenty of snow in Cervinia - This is from Monday lunchtime, an hour after we arrived. It continued all evening, stopped overnight and continued at 2pm today, and its still going strong.
Double or triple the amount you can see in the picture  |

Keep up. The forecast is now for light winds and clear skies on Sun & Mon!
Looks like you've timed it perfectly. |

Yes, but they have increased what they think the dump amount on Thursday / Friday will be
Either way there's definitely (probably maybe) going to be loads
Have my lowlight lens (a yellow mirrored, will see how that goes!) for my EG2's arriving tomorrow, sunday and monday look like they will be amazing offpiste days as long as the avalanche risk isn't too high
Hoping it will be reasonably quiet also as it's only December |

has been pretty quiet this week, most people seem to be expecting it to get a bit busier from this weekend though. cant imagine it being suddenly that packed!
i reckon monday will be a 4, but there is plenty of stuff that should be fine in a 4 depending on the weather. |

Does anyone know what the conditions are like in Bansko?
I am going in a month so there is still time for things to change but I haven't heard much about that conditions in that part of the world. |
