Not just in the US, 20cms forecast for Davos this weekend, yeh I know it will all melt, but it will make me happy to see snow on the peaks

I’d have said it was a little under 2000m here. It’s quite cool, around 3’c at 1200m and some precipitation is expected so we’ll get more snow. I reckon down to 1700m or even lower maybe.

Nice, I love the contrast between “summer” and “winter” colours you get during the autumn.
