Monday’s Weather

Very light snow accumulations possible today, mainly in the afternoon. While amounts are not expected to exceed an inch, this will likely be enough to make for slick roads this afternoon.

We are expecting every type of precipitation with Tuesday’s incoming winter storm – except for hail. The type of precipitation we observe not only depends on the temperature at the ground level but also aloft. Below is a simple diagram that explains how each type is formed.

German Ski Areas Say They Won’t Open This Season As Lockdown Extended!

A number of German ski areas have said they won’t open at all now this season after the country’s government announced that the current lockdown would be extended to at least March 7. The country’s best-known ski resort, Garmisch Partenkirchen, said that unfortunately, this latest extension means it will not be able to open in Garmisch – Classic ski region at all this season, even if it is ultimately allowed to in March.

Germany is also home to the most skiers in Europe, many of whom normally travel to ski in Austria each winter, where the slopes are open. However, border crossing to ski from Germany is currently not allowed due to the pandemic, adding to skier frustration.
