PowderAlert 02 – The powder squirrel feeds hard

The powder squirrel eats hard

by Lars Oelmann 10/18/2011
Now that the snow from two weeks ago, as predicted in the first alert, is hardly present below 2300 m, some more is coming: from France via the Vaud Alps to the Arlberg, around 20-30 cm will accumulate, as there is no real accumulation and the front is only moving across the Alps.

After the snow from two weeks ago is now, as predicted in the first alarm, hardly present below 2300 m, some replenishment is now coming: From France via the Vaud Alps to the Arlberg, approx. 20-30 cm will accumulate, as there is no real accumulation and the front is only moving across the Alps.

These amounts may also accumulate on the southern side of the Alps from Ticino to Trentino, although it is not yet entirely clear how the front will behave as it crosses the Alps from west to east.

Tendentially, however, the focus of the precipitation will be in the area of the northern French Alps up to the Vaud Alps in northwestern Switzerland.

After that, it will also get warmer again from Saturday/Sunday with a zero degree limit between 2500-3000m, so that although the ground may continue to cool down in the coming days, in the medium term larger parts of this snow will only remain in the mountains above 2000 meters above sea level.
