As of 6pm tonight the weather forecast looks as follows:
1) As already mentioned for a while now, the temperatures look set to rise from today until about the 23rd January which won't do any good to the already poor snow conditions.
2) Fresh snowfall looks set to fall from the 24/25 January until the 30th January which will coincide with a fall in temperatures (below freezing level) which is good as it will mean that whatever snow falls will freeze and thaw. For those of you who don't ...

For those of you who don't understand how snowpack is formed and maintained, basically, it is from the continuous freeze-thaw activity (temperature) of the snow. This will also go a long way in consolidating the fresh snowfall for quite a while afterwards.
3) The current weather charts are then forecasting a rise in temperature from about the 20/30th January until about the 5th February with minimal precipitation during this period. However, that is still quite a long way off in weather forecasting terms, so, what this space!
Keep the faith fellow Bulgarian ski/board enthusiasts!
Hornster, you give hope one way or the other - much appreciated, will be in pamps on 27th for a week with 6 others - if ur around theres a few scoops on me (i'll be the one wearing the flasing DILLIGAF beanie)
anyone in bankso at the mo, who knows if the snow cannons are being used? If they are are they helping. I'm assuming they will be being used seeing as they'll want to make the most of the low temps.
