Yep that pesky Jet Stream that decided to turn off the snow tap in the northern Alps last winter and open the flood gates during the summer has decided to play ball again. We're in for some snow over the next couple of days... a lot of snow. Forecasts range from 50 to 100cm with the epicentre being towards the west of the Tirol and east of Salzburgerland. So if you don't have plans this weekend get yourself down to Kitzsteinhorn or Hintertux for some epic conditions... because guess what? Yep there's sun forecast for the weekend. Don't despair if you can't make it this weekend, hopefully this will create a great base layer for early season riding. And more good news! It looks like the same is happening in the Pacific North West and British Columbia where precipitation is consitent and temperatures are forecast to plummet. Good news all-round really!
