Poster: A snowHead
|
For whatever reason I still get snow alerts via e-mail for Sauze, even though I haven't visited the resort for a few years. Suffice to say my inbox isn't often troubled. So the alert I received over the weekend went straight into deleted items.
Imagine my surprise, therefore, when I find out that, not only have snow-forecast.com got it right for once (in fact they were more than a little conservative with their estimate), but also that the notoriously dry Sauze has just had over a metre of snow fall in the last few days. It's biggest dump of the season, for heaven's sake, and probably the biggest single fall since the mid-90's, not long before the place is due to shut for the summer. The webcam, which has been green for weeks, now looks like a scenic Christmas card.
Has the world gone completely mad, or have I been asleep for ten months and woken up in the middle of the 2007/08 season?

No, there's always been good dumps in March/April. Just that people will insist on going skiing in January or - even worse - December.

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

pam w, absolutely. I'm heading off after the Easter hols and there will be tons of snow, sunshine and no numpties to slalom through. (won't be going to Sauze though). The Press, of course, having trashed the first half of the season, aren't likely to mention it.

Well since the snow record seems to be so poor though, job to know why people keep going?? Must have lots of other good things going for it.
