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 :-)

Got out climbing on the Glyders over the weekend. Was quite warm but had a pretty good couple of days. Hopefully the warm spell followed by this new cold period will consolidate the old snow a bit and with a bit more fresh some gullies might come in.

I notice the weather forecast for Brecon shows rising temperatures over the next 48 hrs, but for the time being, there's still snow on the Storey Arms webcam:

Does anyone have any recent local info? If it stays cold enough, I'm planning a trip up on Saturday.

SATURDAY 11 DECEMBER 2010

Ha ha. Just went over myself. Beautiful day for a walk though!

Nothing in the Black Mountain either, well nothing to turn on.

Let's hope that next week's weather brings us snow.

The one saving grace is the Beacons doesn't need much for it to be on.

Snowdonia to the white courtesy phone please. Anything up with you Mark?

FRIDAY 17 DECEMBER 2010

10cm overnight at MQ in Aberdare. 10cm since 7am this morning. Puking here at the moment. Full on Hokkaido conditions, no cowdoo.

The view from my house during Friday's snowfall













Should be at least double up the Beacons with what sounds like significant wind transport and loading.

If the wind's blowing the right way some of the steeper prizes might be good to go once this storm has blown through, it settles and we get some visibility. Most likely Tuesday at this stage.

Roads around here are treacherous at the moment. Half conditions, half retarded drivers.

If this keeps up all day I could well be skiing some of Aberdare's signature runs tomorrow:

Colin's Couloir
Delirium Dai
The Lean To

Bring it Smile
