thescrapman Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 It is late this year.I think Andy Dann said he went over there week before last in his 2000, I was surprised it was open then.It will be interesting to see if your weather prediction is correct. You were pretty much on the ball last year.Who needs a £100m computer when you can have McJim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJim Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 It's only an observation.If we have a severe winter, the cold air and snow come down from Siberia in the east.If the eastern Alps are basically free from snow at 9000 feet up at this time of year, such as at the Stelvio, we tend to have a milder winter.Whether it's reliable or not, we'll have to wait and see but it has been in the last few years.Jim.

Beans Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Stelvio closed today due to heavy snow. They only forgot to mention it. Managed to get to the top and back down without much problems though . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 There was snow about when we went over there on the 12th. Not alot though - the many, many cyclists were a much bigger problem!Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
