Arinsal Forecast

Just wondered where the forecasts for J2ski come from.

Off to Arinsal in a week and the foreacast for today (25th) seems to suggest that there will be 11/12cm with up to 23cm until Weds this week. This seems totally at odds with other forecasts where drizzle to possibly 2/3cm is the predicted norm.

If the J2ski owners/manager have a line into a "higher" authority, great 8) , but there does seem to be some disparity...?

hi marcus were off to soldeu on 4th march ,and we have tried most sites for the last 2 months and have been confused by different forecast , but our gut feeling by recent reviews is snow has been falling quite regular and by next week we should have near perfect conditions,i dont know if you have checked out soldeuonline great website and it shows what soldeu was like 4weeks ago,grim looking pitcures but people were making the best of it,so we have no probs, stay with j2ski its the only snow forecast we look at now cheers hope you have a gr8 time

Thanks Tomski. Hope you're right - the forecast seems to have been about right for the last couple of weeks. Here's hopin'....

Hi guys, the forecast models we take our data from have been bouncing around a bit for Andorra this last week - looks like they'll be on the edge of a weather system that may bring rain, snow or neither... (this afternoon Metcheck were predicting much rain and snow-forecast were predicting a little snow... ).

So far, we've generally got things about right. We've been very close for Andorra to date, but we under-estimated the early snows in the Alps and were a little over for some of the February falls.

TBH, this season has been a bit of a sod. We were originally using the common ratio of 10:1 (snow:rain) to predict the snow depths, but the generally mild temperatures reduce that ratio considerably (wetter, heavier snow = much less depth) and give us a bit of challenge!

So stick with us - we won't always get it right but the feedback when we get it wrong is always useful.

Thanks admin.

Do we know if they had any snow yesterday?
