Here's an email from skier Rhys Jagger

The chart below documents snow depths in Switzerland compared to the long-term mean.

(Stations with more than 10 years of data)

You'll see that almost the whole country is 150% - 500% of normal, with one station registering 1200% of normal (artifact?)

Looks good for a great start to the ski season over here........long live global warming if this is what it brings us.
