tignes forecast and webcams

hi all, I'm off to Tignes this wednesday.

I've been checking the j2ski weather forecasts for months now and it's been looking amazing,snow every day for the past fortnight, mostly at night, looking great....but.....


....for a while now I've noticed that the published base rate is 180cm and that just hasn't changed. considering the reports says they've had about a meter in the past 3 weeks i would expect it to change a bit, at least....

and...

when i look at the webcams, and look at things like fenceposts or buildings, there doesn't seem to be any new snow in evidence.

Is anyone in Tignes at the moment or know what's going on? of course I don't expect the forecast to be 100% accurate but they are generally good and fairly consistent with what i read from the charts myself and other sites out there.

the webcams look great but as I'm really after powder its the fresh, off piste stuff, i'm most excited about. any views on this anyone? anyone just come back?

dunno mate, another decent site to check is snow-forecast.com.

From the forecasts i have seen, it looks like it is going to snow there most days this week so there is bound to be some decent freshies

cheers, i'm on all those forecasts, and they all agree loads of snow forecast and loads of snow past few weeks, can't understand why there's no snow on anything....i'm hoping its a blag to put people off

Came back from Tignes on Saturday and you have nothing to fear. Theres plenty at resort level and at altitude. Runs are in great shape and probaly over a metre at resort level.

Just back today from next door Val D'Isere and there is absolutely tons of snow.
Snowed ALL day yesterday (Friday). And pretty much every day since Tuesday. We had amazing powder (6 inches) on Tuesday - it all fell after the pistes weer bashed.
The snow is about perfect!
Enjoy.
