J2Ski Snow Report 9th March 2017
Hello,
Huge snow for The Alps this week, with more expected today, and still more for the American West.
[Top 100 Snowiest Ski Areas Worldwide](
This Week's Snow Headlines
- Up to 2.4m/8 Feet of snow in the French Alps in the past week.
- Les Arcs, Chamonix and Cervinia have had 1.5m/5 feet in the last 7 days.
- More big snowfalls in western North America, unseasonably warm in the East.
- Four of five Scottish ski areas have at least some terrain open.
The Alps have seen some of their biggest snowfalls of the season this week.
Some resorts have had as much snow in the first week of March, as they've had in the previous three months! But for nearly every ski area it has been a good week for building bases and providing fresh cover as we enter the last third of the Northern Hemisphere season.
Although ski areas in Austria, Italy and Switzerland have reported up to 1.5m/5 feet of snow in the past 7 days, ski areas in the French Alps have reported the biggest snowfalls with up to 2.4m/8 feet of snow. But the snowfall has not been without âissuesâ! Ski lifts, and at times whole resorts, have been closed by the weather this week which has included snow, violent gales and warm temperatures. These have all combined to bring a high avalanche danger and avalanches have been reported in or near Courmayeur and Tignes, among others, in the past few days.
Elsewhere in Europe thereâs been some good snowfall in the Pyrenees, more relatively good falls in the Dolomites, more snow in Scandinavia and several Scottish ski areas have been able to open.
In North America itâs a case of still more big snowfalls in the West, but unseasonably warm temperatures in the East.
In the Forecast
North and East areas of The Alps should see further big falls today, with as much as 60cm forecast for some Swiss and Austrian ski areas and lighter falls elsewhere before the current band of snow fizzles out as we move into Saturday.
A few warm days to then come in The Alps, with a little more snow at altitude, should give everyone the chance to get out ... but please be extra cautious in light of the new snow. Avalanche risk will be very high in places so take local advice before leaving the pistes, don't duck any ropes (seriously, just don't!) and make sure you and your buddies are all properly equipped. Have fun, stay safe!
From early next week, the weather looks to be settling into an un-settled pattern (we like) with temperatures around the seasonal average but regular top-ups of fresh snow across a wide area.
Conditions will continue to evolve toward Spring skiing later in the month, but there's going to be fresh at altitude and deep bases are going to give some great skiing at Easter.
