  1. Keep the faith. You have to reach the bottom before it can turn around. That starts tomorrow.
  2. @carinthian Oh my word! 8c at that altitude, late Jan I cant wait for my children to be older so that I can make skiing in Europe a more last minute affair, without having to plan and book a trip many months ahead. I personally prefer the lower villages within the treeline rather than those high exposed areas >2000m but to book snowsure well in advance, that's what it seems you have to do for now.
  3. I’m under that red blob you just promised me snow tomorrow nice one
  4. Goodness I hope you're wrong about snow melt advancing in the Alps! Looking forward to some Easter skiing!
  5. How are conditions in Austria looking currently? Any expected impacts from the SSW?
  6. @carinthian I’m in need of some morale boosting, some moral support, some snowpositiveness! Due to travel to Obergurgl in April for first ever Easter trip, taking my little princess who loves skiing and the snow. Tell me conditions are more optimistic than forecasts would suggest?
  7. Seasons have moved from Dec - Feb to Jan - Mar. Soon will move to Feb - Apr. Due to longer days in Jan than Dec, winter is not as severe as it was when it was Dec -Feb. And Feb - Apr will not be as severe (cold) as Jan-Mar was. Need to make the adjustment in human expectations, it will continue to move until “winter” is Jun-Aug at which point we will enter the next ice age proper. it’s like this generation has just crested the hill.
  8. Hope the very recent snowfall has done something to improve the situation although doesn't appear that it was anything significant in most resorts.
  9. @carinthian how’s the situation in Austria looking? Scare stories for skiers across the alps at present.
  10. Well 2010 was a once in a lifetime event. So I guess that means I should stop bothering to hope for a repeat and waste [the rest of] my life elsewhere!
  11. Keeping my eye on that same little bit of PPN. Hoping intensifies and lines up nicely.
