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 :-)

You may have noticed Metcheck not being updated much recently, although their automatically updated stuff still seems to be working, here's why. Warning, it's pretty harrowing reading. Sad

Too close to home for me.

We had to sack a member of staff in similar circumstances - they are now trying to sue (a charity!) for unfair dismissal!!!

Here's some alternatives;

http://www.theweatheroutlook.com/twoforecasts/ski%20and%20snowboard%20weather.aspx

TWO is a great site and has some really useful info on it's community boards

http://www.wetter.at/wetter/sport-freizeit/ski-wetter/

Is good but for Austria only

http://www.wetterzentrale.de/topkarten/fsavneur.html

This is the data before it is made end user friendly and needs a bit of knowledge, and believe me I only have a bit -so experts feel free to correct me. Basically the numbers are the hours out from the last forecast model run, these are at 00Z (Midnight) 06Z(6am) 12 Z (noon) and finally 18Z (6pm) the charts to look at are

500hPa Bodendruck which is atmospheric pressure
850hPa Temperatur which is atmospheric temperature
2m temperatur, which is the temperature at the top of your head and is also shown in more detail in the Max/Min temperatur box.
Niederschlag which is precipitation - hopefully snow

We used to use Metcheck's GFS-based aggregations as one of our data sources, although we've now moved to higher-grade base data from other sources for this season.

Well I have several emails from him where he demonstrated that he was completely incapable of running a business. It seems his shortcomings stretched to destroying any hope of a future for his victim.

You should be able to use one of our Mini Snow Forecasts - just cut and paste the code into your web page. Drop me a PM if you're stuck Helen.

J2Dave,my main website is a template (and I haven't got time to change it at the moment), so I link to a wordpress site I created www.serrechevalierapartment.co.uk . I have pasted the code into the site, and the results are shown Here. As you can see I get the text at the bottom of the mini-forecast, but not the images.

From a quick look at the source of your page, it looks as if your cut and paste went wrong - the essential piece of code is missing! You need to make sure you copy all the text from our "blue box" exactly as is.
