The forecast has been upgraded to hit -17°C lows next week. I can't wait. Currently it's -8°C with no snow, the ground is freezing fast. If this keeps up there will be very few ticks and mosquitoes next summer.
Today the weather forecast is even more drastic than the last one I posted, they anticipated the first predicted rain/snow to 12-31-15. The temperatures instead are already more normal for this period.
This are some weather forecasts for my area:
Turin (altitude 239 m)
Susa (altitude 503 m, the nearest to my home)
Sestriere (altitude 2035 m)
I find this forecasts really strange, I've never seen snowing in Turin and raining in here. It is true that lately it has been warmer here in the Valleys than in the plain because of thermal inversion (Turin and the plain had a lot of fog and the cold air stagnating over the area, while the warmer air rose up to our altitudes), but usually during perturbation like this one the temperatures start to follow a more regular pattern, and they just decrease with altitude. Instead for my Valley it is predicted a much higher altitude for snow than for Turin (snow altitude for Turin 330-350 m, for my Valley more than 1000 m higher. You can read it in the last columns of the graphs, it is the number after "neve a" = "snow at")
Now I'm really curious to see what it will really happen... the only sure thing seems to be that it will snow in the high part of the valley, which is a good news for the ones who ski.
