Hasn't stopped raining here since late Friday morning. Some torrential. Obviously snow higher but too much cloud to see anything, only 8°C down here. The Veneon below is pretty spectacular atm, wouldn't want to fall in

was cold here in South Wales this morning.
I briefly considered putting the heating on, then remembered the not until October rule.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@Mr.Egg, And in my bit of South Wales the bird bath hadn't frozen over so no heating on yet. Definitely an autumnal feel though.

@LaForet, How high is that? I had a look at Stubai webcams and the result is very uninspiring. It must be too warm here, we've just had a lot (a LOT) of heavy rain.

We have a friend who was hoping to climb the Matterhorn this week, they went up the Breithorn as a training exercise a couple of days ago but the Matterhorn attempt is sadly off due to the new snow making it too dangerous.

@LaForet, great pics, can't wait to have conditions like that a bit lower and further west....not that much fell at 2300m in PdS. Would be fun to be out on a MTB, access paths will be kept clear as long as they can into winter so am thinking there will be good exploring to do

not a big deal guys, it snows all year round at altitude.
|
|
|

You know it makes sense.
|
|
but a good few cm's at 2300m and lower in August doesn't happen every year, sometimes doesn't happen in a winter month.

We had snow in resort, 1650m, during the afternoon of Bastille Day 3 years ago. It had gone by evening.
It didn't actually snow down that low here last night although I saw some mountain biking videos of friends higher up and there was plenty.

Our glacier yesterday. Summer skiing had only finished on Friday, 2 days early because of the poor weather over the weekend. Hopefully we'll open at Toussaint this year. We haven't the last 2 years because of a lack of snow.

Will be the best snow ever for ski season - which many of us probably won’t be able to make due to Covid and associated restrictions
