Re: Snow anyone?

It snowed a fair bit at the weekend, mostly gone round us now but there is still plenty a little higher up. It is BLEEDIN' cold though, it didn't get above 2 all day yesterday and it's about -5 right now.

This time last year I was working outside in a T shirt and watching I didn't burn!

haha we had a light sprinkling yesterday late evening, but no great white blankets of the stuff. Unfortunately the magic clock cannot tell me the exact amount of snow that will fall, only that it will or it wont. However, he is still very chuffed with himself its a bit blimin chilly today don't you think?

It wouldn't be so bad if that awful wind died down a bit. This is one of the reasons I love Switzerland - there isn't so much wind. I moved from a coastal area in England which was constantly windy and I hated it.

Re: Snow anyone?

Which coastal region was that? The constant lack of wind in Switzerland makes me very unhappy

I doubt it. We have (at least here) good weather forecast for the weekend and it's set to get warmer each day until then.

Last winter up here was really bad (for snow and skiing at least) and revenues for the Flumserberg company were down 30%. They are hoping for a lot of snow this winter and one farmer neighbour today told me he thinks we'll get at least 3m. He was exagerating (I hope)!

Re: Snow anyone?

We went up to Mount Titlis on Monday. Never seen so much snow in my life! At one point I was up to my thighs in it. A great day out! Really enjoyed.
