Has anybody else had a problem getting on the J2Ski weather website?
Just tried going on this morning and it says it's been blocked because it is now classified as an "attack website"???
Cheers

snowsteve, looks like the site has been blocked - apparently as a result of Google suspecting untoward things. I suspect the problem relates to the set up of j2ski-canada.com

Google is currently posting an advisory about j2ski.com.
We believe this to have been the result of our old Ad Server (which was running on the domain ski2.j2ski.com) having been compromised by some lowlife. That Ad Server has been taken down and all ads on the site are now being served by an alternative.
We currently have no indication of any other issue with the site and believe it is safe for you to use J2Ski. You should, of course, always browse the Internet from a computer running a reputable Antivirus / Security application (Zone Alarm, Kaspersky, etc.) which will protect you in any case.
We are waiting on Google to re-scan us to remove the warning.
As you were... |

Indeed. The prediction of weather - especially stuff as complex as mountain weather and snow forecasting - is the domain of the best meteorologists, equipped with very high-powered computers. And even they get it wrong sometimes. The Meteosuisse site has nice simple maps and info for Switzerland:
