Snow Report TV has been created as a truly independent snow reporting website because quite frankly, who else is sick of resorts spinning their own snow reports which are just created as a tool to promote their own resort.<\/p>\n
Have you ever heard a snow report that talks of a \u201cpowder day\u201d, only to turn up and find less than an inch of fresh snow which fell heavy and wet?<\/p>\n
<\/h2>\n
Powder day:<\/strong><\/em> If any type of snow has fallen. One single flake can constitute a “powder day” at some resorts. This term tells us NOTHING.<\/p>\n Soft and forgiving snow:<\/strong><\/em> It has been pi$$ing down rain.<\/p>\n Firm and fast:<\/strong><\/em> The resort is a sheet of ice.<\/p>\n Great day in the terrain park:<\/strong><\/em> Because the rest of the resort is screwed.<\/p>\n One foot of fresh snow:<\/strong><\/em> Similar to men talking about their sexual conquests, you can probably halve this number. This measurement was probably taken in a drift off the back of the hill.<\/p>\n Dress warm:<\/strong><\/em> It is so cold you wouldn’t want to let your dog “mark its territory”, or it may freeze solid in the process.<\/p>\n Light breeze:<\/strong><\/em> Could be anything from a “light breeze” to cyclonic winds.<\/p>\n Some lifts may be on wind hold:<\/strong><\/em> Lifts WILL BE on wind hold.<\/p>\n Superb grooming:<\/strong><\/em> We haven’t had snow for weeks, so grooming is our only hope.<\/p>\n So much to do off the snow as well:<\/strong><\/em> You might as well not bother bringing your skis or snowboard today.<\/p>\n Watch this vision taken from around the resort:<\/strong><\/em> “Around” the resort means “around” and not “within”. The footage was probably taken by riding a sled to the top of a nearby untracked peak to get fresh tracks.<\/p>\n Check out this vision taken from on the resort:<\/strong><\/em> We sent our camera and skiers\/snowboarders before we let the general public on the lift to make it look like you can get fresh tracks.<\/p>\n There are many more here as well. Please put your suggestions in the comments section below and we’ll try and compile a more comprehensive list.<\/strong><\/p>\n If we get the right support with Snow Report TV, we will endeavor to bring you:<\/p>\n <\/div>\n We\u2019d love for you to start by clicking the \u201cLIKE\u201d button at the top right hand corner of this page and then commenting when you watch a video.
