Looks like they've added another web cam at 1550. Another distraction from work...

James the Last, do know where you're coming from 
However you could say she has been specially picked - as in their training which has been all the past week - there were I think 35 of them in the Tignes group - and it was her and one another that were in effect "picked" at the end of the course - think the other staff had already been sorted.............

It's a mistake in the graph 
If it were real it would mean LOADS of precipitation

......and if you believe the precip run - look at the temperature on the operational run too - FL at approx 2500? I'm sure it will be fine though.
Good healthy spike for today/tomorrow though.

Thanks for the feedback guys! rob@rar, you're a lucky guy, if possible it'll be even more epic next week. Local forecast is for it to get sunny from tomorrow, but staying below freezing. Can it get any better!?

Wow! Great photoes evski. Just goes to show, all it takes is a dump....

Or 10 dumps, all of which happen to come one after another, joined up by mini-dumps, in the space of 3 days!!
Christmas has come early! I've just been out to buy a couple of new base layers and I'll be packing tonight!

Wow.
Looks similar to when all that snow came down at once in the week before Christmas week in 2008, the time the Alpaka had snow practically covering the front door  . Think it was 1 metre of snowfall in 2-3 days, or something like that IIRC. Naturally the avalanche risk was high too, as it is now (4/5-'Fort' according to Tignes.net?).

Yes, 4 today, but still plenty of safe areas to play! No kit, no off piste though, but everybody here knows that.

Tsshh. I lost the car twice in a *day* in Tignes in the first week of December 2007. Dug it out in the morning, to save time when we left, and had to dig it out again in the evening... Needless to say we left the resort the day the snow arrived.

Phil_D, that's it, think the lifts were closed for a day or two weren't they? I remember it well because the snow just didn't stop for a few days, much like people are describing now. Then the sun came out for a week but it stayed cold
