[Weather In Slovenia]

Also I have heard the alps are getting very early snowfalls starting tomorrow - I hope this means for a good skiing season

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

In the Dolomites we are expecting snow on Sunday and Monday. The quote for early snow falls will be at 1600 slm (meters). I will post the web cams of the area once the white flakes will fall B) Regarding the ski season in the last years the artificial one seemed have solve the problem for the skier :unsure:

Your data is rather out-dated now, Strauch67. Max Sustained wind speeds have now exceeded 140mph+ and gusts are even higher.

You're right Paladin...I'm working and I guess I shouldn't follow Rita's evolution :blink: :blink:

One of these ex-TStorms will slap us a good-un sometime soon, surely it's only a matter of time??

Anyway, back on topic: has anyone got a good link for how/why/where/when hurricanes/typhoons form. Something fairly detailed but not beyond us mere mortals??!!

Rita, Queen of Speed. Your best Alton Towers ride ever.

Well that's what it says in the advert. Not actually seen it, though. I bet it's crap.

The shear map indicates that once Rita passes Fl it is free to expand and reiforce without any obstacles

What do you think?
