re: It's snowing again

It is definitely not snowing at the top - honest, we just made a call to Bobby's motorbiking mate who is on nightshift at the top station... It has started snowing in the town though(about 30mins ago) as I just drove home...

re: It's snowing again

i guess the weather station must be higher up than the gondola. but at least its trying hard to snow if theres such a thing

re: It's snowing again

The weather station is actually on the Mussala peak which is at 2924m (Bobby is a mind of useless info!!!) gondola is 2369. The problem up top is not the temperature, it is the fact that the mountain is covered in mist and when there is mist, there is no snow....that;s why at the beginning of the season when there was snow at the bottom, there was none at the top as there just fog / mist.
