Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Windchill hits -49C on Europe's highest ski summit

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
The air temperature at Europe's highest ski lift station - the Klein Matterhorn above Zermatt - was -29C at 10am (local time) this morning, with a wind speed of 57 km/h. That results in a windchill of -49C.

Needless to say, the lift is closed! From the look of the various mountain webcams, most skiers are nursing hot chocolates.

It got to -31c with another -17c of windchill at the top of Plein Morte in Crans Montana at Christmas and the lift was still running! That was pretty nippy, we had to stop every couple of minutes to check exposed flesh for signs of frostbite.

A mate just called me from Hintertux. Says it's -25C at the Tuxerfernerhaus (bottom of the glacier) but there's a 20mph wind. I've no idea exactly what that works out to with wind chill but he's calling it a day. Looks pleasant enough on the web cam but I guess this is a day to watch the Grand Prix instead.

SMALLZOOKEEPER, Chocolate chaud avec chantilly, call it what you like, but its a great drink when cold. Even better when you have a dodgy Magnum/YMCA tash like mine.

About 8 cm last night, but touble is it is drifting into about 3 to 4 foot drifts and filling the lanes. Main roads were fine today. We have had a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain so it is like an ice rink out there.....doesn't bode well for the morning.
