Austrian villages woke up to a welcome coat of fresh snow this morning, which was especially appreciated in the ski resorts east of the Arlberg. Temperatures are expected to drop over the next few days, allowing ski areas to make use of the snow cannons. The region is also expecting several centimetres of snow.
Starting Friday, Switzerland and France are expecting a heavy snowfall. Vorarlberg, in western Austria, will likely also receive around 30cm of snow. Further east, though, the chances of snow are less, and we'll just have to cross our fingers that the cold front move further east and temperatures stay low. Next week's forecast calls for milder weather, with decreased chances of precipitation.
Born and raised in the ski paradise of Vancouver, Canada, I learned to ski before I can remember, balancing precariously on my parents’ skis as they sailed down the hill. I started snowboarding in my teens and am now delighted to be exploring everything Europe’s ski scene has to offer!
