There was a huge variety of different conditions across of featured Swiss resorts on Monday 30th January.
A handful of locations such as St Mortiz (90/118cm) enjoyed pleasant, clear blue skies after a healthy dusting of snow on Saturday 28th January. It was a similar story at Davos (138/229cm) which is now mostly back to normal following the World Economic Forum there last week.
Other featured Swiss resorts such as Villars (40/250cm) however experienced low, heavy cloud cover creating poor visibility and light snowfall on Monday although the resort still managed to open 32 out of a possible 34 lifts.
The temperature is forecast to drop as we move towards next weekend, getting lower than -20C in some locations at the end of this week. This is cold so make sure you wrap up warm, and if you have mitts this could be a good time to use them.
