J2Ski Snow Report 18th January 2018
[Read our Snow Report online](
It's snowing big time (again) in the Alps this week...
This Week's Snow Headlines
- Snowstorms close ski slopes in the Alps again.
- Whistler base depth reaches 2m after 25cm of snow in past few days.
- Scottish ski areas report up to 70cm of fresh snow in 72 hours.
- Light snow on slopes in Australia in mid-summer there.
- Engelbergâs base depth reaches 5.3m - the worldâs deepest.
After a fairly calm five or six days in much of Europe, stormy weather has returned with some big snowfalls now underway and expected to continue through the weekend. The new snowfall is accompanied by strong winds, forcing some ski areas to temporarily close large swathes of their ski terrain.
So far however the conditions do not seem as extreme as the storm a fortnight ago, with the Chamonix Valley, for example, managing to keep 20-30% of its terrain open. Once the weather clears... already impressive snow depths will have increased further.
Elsewhere conditions are good in most of the worldâs major ski regions including the Dolomites and Pyrenees. Scandinavia and Scotland have also seen significant snowfall leading to some of the best snow conditions at the latter for some years. Across the Atlantic itâs a continually improving picture in Western USA, which had been suffering a snowfall drought, with ever better conditions elsewhere on the continent too.
Further afield, Japan is having an epic season with huge snowfall totals and even ski areas in Australia have reported unseasonal snowfalls.

In the Alpine Forecast
The snowfall now in progress across a wide area of the Alps is expected to continue through into the early part of next week. Heaviest snow is expected to the North and West, with accumulations likely to exceed 1 metre in and around parts of the northern French Alps.
Elsewhere should still see 20cm to 50cm across a wide area.
Clearer weather is expected to follow from Tuesday.
AVALANCHE RISK
Avalanche risk levels remain very high over a wide area and this will continue for a while.
Please be patient; exercise caution at all times and keep to the pistes until local authorities say it's safe. If going off-piste, carry avalanche safety kit (transceiver, shovel and probe) and do not ski alone.
