ECS Weather

Post by István » Monday 25 January 2010, 11:56

I looked at the forecasts for this weekend and did not really like what I saw... cloudy and snowfall.... :(

Anyone has a link to a weather forecast that shows a nicer picture? 8O

Anyone has the power to change the weather? :wink:

Forcast in Switzerland for Zinal: From Thuesday to Saturday about a plus of 15-25 cm of fresh new snow! What a great thing for to test the new Swoard Dual!
Gliding on Snowboards,
like Pogo, Kessler, Virus, Hot, Nidecker and others,
from 151 up to 183 cm and 14 to 27.4 cm width,
covering any kind of shapes with
any kind of boots and bindings.

Istvan, do you have Russky Standard near of your computer. Look through the bottle - it can show true forecast. If you do not see true forecast drink a shots until you will see this. You will need a liter bottle to see true forecast.

Well, it's not a MUST.... but if it feels right, why not. Also, as per the weather forecast it will be quite cold, so we'll need the 'protective' shots on the slopes as well.... :twisted:

@Francesco: you should get some Italian grappa, too.

Keep patience! Sometimes weather on the south of Zinal (Italy) should be watched also. (for Saturday clouds and sun, for Sunday pure sun)
