Bulgaria Ski discussion board

The snow forecast hasn't changed for the last few days which is always a good sign as it means that all the various weather runs/models are in agreement!

Snow is still on the cards from Wednesday night and lasting several days which will coincide with a drop in temperature below the freezing level. All of which is great for snowfall and consolidating the fresh snowpack. The heaviest snowfall looks to be between 25th - 30th January and then varied amounts of snowfall for several days afterwards.

I will stick my neck out and say that the fresh snowfall between Wednesday this week and Monday/Tuesday next week will be sufficient to totally rejuvenate the current poor snowpack and will allow the rocks, tree stumps and gravel to be suitable covered again. However, that is assuming that the temperatures will remain as low as currently forecasted and the wind doesn't pick up too much to blow the fresh snow away.

I'm off to bansko this Saturday (27th) and am still confident that I will be skiing on a good fresh snowbase that will be getting progressively better throughout the week after the piste grooming machines and snow cannons, operating at full capacity, have done their magic!

Happy skiing/boarding everyone.
