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 :-)

Last minute trip to Turin area - Snow forecast

I am intermediate level with no much experience in ski trips. I managed to get some inexpensive last minute flights to Turin for next weekend (9/3/24), and I am looking at budget options easily accessible from this airport by public transport. I am considering Bardonecchia or Sauze d’Oulx. Bardonecchia would be overall more convenient, as it would work out a bit cheaper, with accommodation very close to the main lift.
However, looking at the snow forecast for the next week ahead, it suggests that it may snow nearly three times as much in Sauze :-O
Different websites are giving different predictions, but going by onthesnow.co.uk, it suggests:
Bardonecchia: Next 48hs: 29cm – Next 7 days: 54cm
Sauze d’Oulx: Next 48hs: 92cm – Next 7 days: 144cm
My question is whether the forecast snowfall in Bardo might be sufficient for a very pleasant experience?
Or whether the snowfall in Sauze might be too much, which could result in lift and piste closures, and perhaps roads blocked?
Finally, which snow forecasting websites people might have found more reliable? I’m checking j2ski, snow-forecast and onthesnow.
Thank you all

You should be more concerned with how much snow is already on the ground
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks for pointing that out. They are both reported to be similar, 45cm on the base, 90cm at the top.
