Snow Reporter Comments: The Calm Before the Storm! It looks like a stunning sunny and calm day on the way to kick off the week, before some real mountain weather arrives tomorrow. The sky is clear, the current temperature is zero and we are heading for a very pleasant top of 4 degrees. The gauge up top is showing a stiff southerly at the moment but there is virtually no wind in the village, and I expect the wind up high will drop right off very soon after the sun rises. The snow has had another good freeze overnight, but the groomers feel like they will be riding and skiing well from the get-go. The base is firm but there's a little soft snow on the surface, so the early laps should be good for carving turns on the piste. Off-piste will be best avoided until there has been significant warming on the sunniest of slopes. The shaded aspects will likely stay hard and unpleasant for the day, and probably best left until we have had some fresh snow on top...which shouldn't be too long now. Slap on the screen and make the most of a nice calm day in the sun... before it gets really good over the next few days! Cheers Bill.
