 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
Just arrived in the Dolomites and it’s 8°c on the piste. Snow is turning to slush. I’ve never known it so warm here in February. Is this unusual?

Large parts of the world are unusually warm at the moment, Europe in particular.

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

We had temperatures in the Dolomites of up to +10°C during Christmas week and up to +8°C during the third week of January. On both trips it was like spring skiing at times. Global warming seems to be hitting the mountains hard and I feel sorry for future generations who will probably never have the snow conditions we have been lucky enough to enjoy.

There will be years when the snow is more epic than we can imagine, climate change brings these wild swings. What is in doubt is whether skiing based tourism can handle the inconsistency and survive.

It’s Alps wide. The snow sure place we love at 1,000m above Schladming, since 24 January has experienced daily maxima of 6c to 14c, some minima have been well above zero. Webcams show green mountains normally seen in April, with narrow slithers of white representing manmade slush.

The ostrich's call that fake news. Early February skiing in the 80’s and 90’s was exactly the same.
