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 :-)

WRS stating GVA to open at 10h00. Last nights snow was quite incredibly heavy, as heavy as I've ever seen it fall in the mountains. Swiss meteo saying 30 cms in Geneva generally. I reckon nearly 40cms in my garden.

Possibly the most snow I've seen here, at least from a single dump.

It's not snowing heavily now, so I guess they "just" have to clear the runway and the planes.

Annoyingly, it doesn't appear to have snowed that heavily in Chamonix. Mad

Really? I drove from GVA to Grenoble last night, lots of cars grinding along at 20km/h however maybe the GVA direction hadn't been cleared. I didn't take the Liane though, drove through the backroads via lots of odd villages Viry, Maisonneuve: somewhere called Charly stood out. A bit of an adventure and on the backroads you couldn't drive more than 50km/h.

davidof, Annecy was gridlocked and when we did hit the motorway junction to Geneva at about 7.30/8pm it was closed due to a multi vehicle pile up. We had to find another was to Geneva. Took up 5 hours from Tignes to Geneva.

aieee, yes I can imagine Annecy was a horror, the Rhone-Alpins don't tend to bother with snow tires or road worth vehicles either. 5 hours isn't bad to be honest in the conditions.

pam w, Horse Shocked Laughing Laughing

The horse shall tell his truth. We were never flying back last night, our flight was at 7.30am this morning, so months ago I had booked a double in the Crown Plaza just down the road from the airport. We had a nice night in a 5 star hotel last night and a huge breakfast this morning. My brother lives 5 minutes from the airport so we are going to book out at 12 and then pop down the airport to see what's going on and then go to his house for the rest of the day.

Got web access at the hotel and my blackberry so working away and not wasting a days holiday. All a bit easy to be honest, rather embarrassed. Embarassed Embarassed

However to give an update looking out the bedroom window, it is absolutely chucking it down. Will try take a photo on blackberry and post it.

Ah yes, but you know a lot of locals wait for the actual snow to arrive before they switch tyres...
