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 :-)

Swiss snow

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Doing Switzerland for the first time this year (excepting over the border from Cervinia and Avoriaz that is), and going to Zematt. Good snow forecast for Sunday. First decent dump of the year if it happens (on much maligned but addictive Snow forecast). Looks a good start for a so called relatively 'dry' resort. Only another 107 days of checking online! snowHead

twoodwar, what you need is a feed of live data from automatic snow depth measuring stations updated every three hours.

Et voila wink

Snow-forecast has been 100% right for us recently. Once or twice when it was well adrift from meteo france I had my doubts, but meteo france came round to the same way of thinking a bit later in the day. We had 6 cms of snow today, exactly as forecast, and the temperatures forecast were spot on, too. Now I hope they're right to say that we'll get bright sunshine tomorrow (and wrong about the torrential rain for the weekend. Sad Sad ).

Pam good to hear, I do like Snow forecast, and take it each year to resort. Nearly always right for the next 4 or 5 days.
Brian, should I follow the address at the bottom for this??

Sorry for ignorance, but looks a lot better for me than wigglies (hence snow forecast), and SCGB snow reports

As far as I know Verbier are still planning on opening on the 6th, although its mild right now and they will take a hit before it cools down this weekend.

Zermatt was shut for skiing (but not for drinking!) all last weekend; the wind was registering 114km at one point on Saturday, not much Fohn Sad

kitenski, from the Verbier website:

"Même si la neige est tombée ces derniers jours, le fort vent en altitude n’a pas permis d’avoir une couche de neige suffisante pour recouvrir les pistes.
Nous ne pouvons pas ouvrir le domaine ce week-end.
Mais si les conditions le permettent, le Lac des Vaux ouvrira le samedi 6 novembre.
Rendez-vous le 3 novembre pour le verdict !"


...in other words maybe the Lac des Vaux area to open this weekend, confirmed tomorrow, other areas have been too windy to get a good enough coverage.
