    Not good bda, just back from a quick morning run and whilst the wind is icy cold and the sun is shining the roads are drying up after one heck of a down pour in the night. I really do not like winter ?

    Snow showers will gradually die away from the northern French Alps today, but will continue all day across much of Switzerland and Austria (away from the far south). Indeed, it will probably still be snowing across some north-eastern parts of the Alps tomorrow morning.

    No snow to report out here mate, although last week we had 85 knot mean wind speed gusting too 100 knots which were accompanied by 75 foot waves!! My Rig sits approx 72 feet from the sea so we ballasted up to Survival Draft which is an extra 12 feet as we got battered by Mother Nature for 36 hours!! Not uncommon up here this time of year.

    Cheers, Marc.

    Thanks for the update marc, hope you don’t get a dollop of the White stuff so you can enjoy the RS before you have to go back to work. A friend has just come back from Lubuck USA and there’s a generation that have never seen snow and a hole generation that have never (can’t) drive in the snow.
