This is our final weekly round-up for the winter; after Easter we'll be sending you a monthly summary until the snows come again to the North. [Top 100 Snowiest Ski Areas Worldwide]( This Week's Snow Headlines - 15-20cm of snow two months before the 2017 season starts in Australia and New Zealand. - Around 20% of ski areas now closed for season with more than 50% due to close after up-coming Easter Sunday weekend. - Up to 70cm of fresh snow in California, Colorado and Utah. - 10cm of fresh snow in Romania. - 50cm of fresh snow this week at Whistler. - Winter conditions in Norway, with up to 25cm of fresh snow. You know that the season is starting to wind down when more snow is reported falling in Australia and New Zealand than in the Alps! But to be fair that is exceptional for early April - unusual weather in the southern hemisphere brought 15-20cm of snow to the slopes of ski areas in Australasia last Sunday/Monday. It was short-lived, of course, and staff at the resorts were questioning if they’d ever had such sizable snowfalls in what is still early autumn there. In the Alps it has been April weather as we might expect it with warm temperatures and mostly sunny days so classic spring skiing on higher slopes with hard snow first thing, good conditions from mid-morning to early afternoon and then slush. Lower resorts have more challenging conditions with little snow left and many have closed or will close after the coming Easter weekend. There is more snow in the forecast, at altitude, and a return to cooler conditions looks likely after Easter however. Across the Atlantic there have been still more big snowfalls on the western side of the continent as there have been almost non-stop since late November last year. In the Forecast Significantly cooler weather (for April), with some heavy precipitation, is now forecast next week. The heaviest falls are expected for Austria and eastern Switzerland, and snow should be falling by Easter Sunday with quantities building through the first half of next week. To the West of the Alps (France and western Switzerland), temperatures will be higher and precipitation lower - but still enough to freshen things up from 2,000m and above. The Pyrenees *may* also get some decent Easter snow, although the forecast models at present look much less certain about that, and temperatures will likely be high enough to confine any new snow to upper slopes. As always at this time of year; do check local conditions and resort opening times directly before travelling!
