 Poster: A snowHead

There is a huge amount of snow forecast in Kitzbuhel next week, suspect it will be similar for other resorts nearby

Just back from a week in Nassfeld, 85 miles South of Salzburg where the snow has been sublime - over ½ metre fell Mon/Tue on an already excellent base.
The cold temperatures kept the snow in ace condition for the rest of the week. Valley-mist mid week kept the crowds away but above the fog it was perfect blue-bird powder heaven

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The key is having relatively constant cold temperatures instead of big +/-10 degree fluctuations
Feb should be a good month

@Peter S, yes if that much falls on Thurs Fri and Sat there will likely be travel disruption on Sat what with Innsbruck and Salzburg airports being rammed on a Sat anyway

@Peter S, nice problem to have given the snow so far, travel chaos incoming though for those flying into/ out of Innsbruck and Salzburg next weekend as @VolklAttivaS5, says.

Heading to Mayrhofen on Thursday via Munich. 60cm of snow forecast between Thursday and Saturday. Looks interesting. Our group definitely prefer fast piste skiing so they might not be happy.

Also heading for Mayrhoffen, arriving Innsbruck Friday evening so avoiding the crowds. With 3 off-piste skiers, plus a guide from Monday, so VERY happy with the forecast.

@snowball, perhaps work on fact you will coming in from Munich if forecast correct, poor conditions and the pilots quite rightly won’t risk the descent into Innsbruck, happened to us on last visit

You know it makes sense.

Flying into Salzburg on Saturday afternoon! The irony of watching webcams anxiously for weeks, only to start worrying there is too much snow. 
Fingers crossed it’s an amazing week of skiing though!

There's only 20-30cm forecast for Innsbruck itself; the airport should be able to deal with that no problem  Low level fog tends to be a bigger issue than falling snow IME
