I have a trip planned to the dolomites and just saw the current snow conditions out there and am thinking about canceling my flight if there is no new snow in the near future... since i have a hard time navigating those web sites due to the language barrier, do any of you euro maggots know what the snow forecast looks like for the dolomites?

by the way, the thread with the third-most posts in ski/snowboard is called 'snow for the euros'. it's where you'll find the most information about snow, europe and european maggots :)

^^what he said. at the moment we have a weather system from the west bringing some snow, mainly in switzerland and france, although italy should get a least a little too. http://www.wetterzentrale.de/topkarten/ has an extensive collection of weather maps and models for europe. click on the gfs link in the upper left corner and pick one, Niederschlag is precipitation, Temperatur is temperature. if you insist on something that makes forecasts is words rather than pictures, try www.accuweather.com, their forecasts go to 15 days, whether you believe those or not is up to you.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTACES COME TO EUROPE.

Well, OK come if you want to bugger up your kit on all the shagging rocks. Get really hacked off at every report this side of pluto telling us how much bas-tard snow North America has.

My garden should be under 1.5 metres and wait for it......




I was thinking of getting the bloody lawn mower out cos my bloody grass is growing pzzzzttttt!

Have you outlawed fun in Europe? Will the fun be reinstated in March?

Could be something reasonably significant Monday/Tuesday next week.
