Kopaonik snow cover

come back snow! Need a huge dump on friday now!

[-JC-]

It's slowly melting away at the moment :( down to 27cm, hope there will be a big dump soon!

Its looking more and more likely that the snow will arrive in the last week of January :(

I was hoping for the 21st but the models are gradually shifting the dates back.... must pray harder.

we'll be lucky if we get 1cm.... with rising temperatures until the 24th/25th (when it looks like it could snow very heavily).

I think we should deffinatly get snow on our holiday, I'd just rather it fell during the first 3 days, rather than the last 3 days.

Goto: http://www.arl.noaa.gov/ready/cmet.html?

type:

Latitude: 43.28
Longtitude: 20.8

click continue, then choose 0-180h GFS on the meteogram option, then type the password... This will give you a good percipitation forecast; to calculate how much snow will fall multiply the percipitation by 8-10.. if there's 2mm of rain it could fall as 2cm of snow.

Next visit: http://www.arl.noaa.gov/ready/animations.html

Scroll down to europe find the row named "MSLP, 1000-500mb Thickness, & Precipitation" and select the long range GFS gif option, this will give you an easy to follow percipitation forecast at a slightly lower altitude.

Hope this helps

JC you should be a professor of meteorology (if not already)!!!

This was very helpful thanks a lot and you are right some snow can be expected from the 24th unless something happens.

If I come to Kop on the week when you are there I'll take you to some and after and then

That snow expected on Friday seems to have all but disappeared before it even arrived :(

SpongeBob sounds like a plan

I couldn't bring myself to post yesterday, the snow completely disappeared untill the end of the month... however its back today (the models are still holding out for a fall between the 20th & 25th), but I guess we wont really know whats going to happen untill this time next week.

THIS IS KILLING ME

ps. my deepest symathies to all those going out on sunday :(

[SnowPloughPrincess]

I am really disappointed. I am holding onto the fact the weather is dam hard to predict!!

[SpongeBob]

[Munchio]
