Some new snow

 It's been an up-and-down week. A couple of days ago, we had just enough snow on the ground that skiing was possible (not good, but possible). Then it turned warm and we lost all of it. Now, snow has returned, and is still falling.

So, once again, skiing is possible. The snow cover is thin: 8 cm of loose powder at most, which packs down to about 2 cm. I don't recommend it, but if you are desperate to ski and you have an old pair of rocks skis, then you could give it a try.

A couple of other things to consider: the temperature is now -1 and will be around 0 for much of the day, so the snow will likely be sticky. Second, the forecast says the snowfall may change to rain during the day, so that wouldn't be very pleasant.
