PowderAlert 13 2016/17 | Replenishment in the northwest
02/28/2017 • Lars Oelmann
As announced, the current has turned to the northwest and there's even some alarm-worthy snow. In the south, it didn't snow quite as much in the core zones in the west (or significantly less), while the east (Slovenia/Italy) was in the target range. -

PowderAlert 4 2016/17 | Base for the southern high mountains.
11/20/2016 • Lars OelmannIt's snowing in the Southern Alps! Massive traffic jam, the competition reports #EightMeterSnow and the oracle is silent? No, not really, I just wanted to wait and see if it really will be as warm as expected. If Ullr causes the snow line to rise above the tree line, it makes no sense to go skiing during the precipitation. -

PowderAlert 2 2016/17 | Ullr for president
11/08/2016 • Lars OelmannUnlike Trump as president, Ullr is a god of facts and feel-good, so I'm afraid I'll have to pass on the #EightMeterSnow clickbait hashtag. But at least there's now a widely drivable alarm. So wax your skis, study the ski tour maps or hope for ski resorts to open earlier. It has already started to snow, but the fun only lasts until the weekend and unfortunately not until 2020 ;) -

PowderAlert 16 - Warm shower
03/30/2016 • Lars Oelmann
Is it perhaps the last alarm? It's snowing, but only in the high mountains. The last few weeks have seen a few flakes here and there, but not large amounts all at once. At least the March temperatures have remained bearable in contrast to the last few years. But spring is here, even here in Alaska, where one temperature record after another is being broken and we are now going on spring tours for the last few days. -

PowderAlert 15 - The second act
03/03/2016 • Lars OelmannThe play continues and artistic director Ullr wants to extend the season of the extremely successful play "Märzwinter". The little man from the street, who is always asked about this in TV interviews, doesn't think it's so great, but we're looking forward to a little compensation for the miserable start to the powder season. -

PowderAlert 14 - The first act
03/01/2016 • Lars OelmannAs in a theater play, the coming snowfall is divided into several acts that actually belong together, as there are only minimal breaks between the precipitation. -

PowderAlert 11 - Nothing new in the west.
02/11/2016 • Lars OelmannJust as the book describes the cruel everyday life of war, this alarm describes the wonderful everyday life in the west of the Alps that Ullr brings to all locals and travelers for the weekend. -

PowderAlert 10 | West at its best.
02/07/2016 • Lars OelmannAs an oracle, you have to seek the divine and so I'm sitting at the end of the road in Valais just before the French border, waiting for Ullr's new powder revelation. The alert is valid until Wednesday. -

01/10/2016 • Lars OelmannThe time has come, it's finally snowing really fluffy powder, unfortunately most of it again for those who are already blessed with it from Ullr.
