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 :-)

A plain old google isn't helping me but if anyone has any specific suggestions i'd appreciate it please. I'm going to Saalbach in 3 weeks and am curious.

The conditions in Saalbach right now are excellent. In 3 weeks is guessing game, but it is unlikely that it will become so hot that the snow will disappear. In fact the weather report this week looks changeable, so there may be some more snow and temperatures remain mostly under zero.

Bergfex or ZAMG are good websites for weather reporting.

Thank you very much. What do you look for in the reports that tells you if conditions are good or not? Like, I don't really have a sense of how good 85cm of snow on the mountain is.

@bobcat, look on the official website to see how many lifts and runs are open, and for live webcam shots.

Plus you'll get plenty of info from other snowHeads on here.

@bobcat, having had a blast around the Saalbach-Hinterglemm main valley (anti-clockwise) today, I can say that the piste conditions are generally excellent, and shortly to be refreshed by a very welcome dump later this week.

What you want in meteorological terms is a heavy duty cold front coming down from Russia, hitting a warm, water laden front (depression) progressing from the Atlantic across Europe eastwards. This then creates the massive dumps which we like. Meteox is the best site to watch the progressions across the Atlantic:

Meteox is invaluable for climbing and skiing.

For a nice graphical forecast see

https://wxcharts.com/?panel=default&model=gfs,gfs,gfs,gfs&region=alps&chart=winteroverview,850temp,2mtemp,2mtemp&run=00&step=270&plottype=10&lat=47.131&lon=10.276&skewtstep=0

as ever the forecast changes every day sometimes for the better sometimes for the worse (the snow forecast for Thursday now seems to be not as much)

https://wepowder.com/en has regular ski focused weather forecasts, the latest of which seems pretty positive for the eastern alps. For S-H the magic word is "Nordstau" which implies considerable snow for the alps between the Arlberg and Salzburg, sometimes (not this time) huge amounts.

Conditions on the Stubai glacier are excellent at the minute, pistes are holding up well pretty much all day (however the low number of people are obviously helping with that) and the forecast for snow over the next 3-4 days will be the cherry on the cake.
