Davos Snowfall

Given the heavy snowfall and significant traffic on the way to Davos this year, it became apparent that opting for the hour's helicopter flight from Geneva was a practical choice.

At least 20 people were evacuated late last night from the North of Davos due to an avalanche scare. It has been snowing incessantly in Davos for the past 48 hours. A further metre or so is expected to fall across some parts of the Alps on Monday, the weather office predicted.

As the World Economic Forum (WEF) annual meeting begins here on a sunny day on Tuesday after days of heavy snowfall, six sessions will be open for the general public at the highly secured and otherwise invitation-only summit.
