Winter fragrance fills the end of April in the Vicenza province, where the "white lady" has wanted to intimidate spring with one last cold snap. Over 30 centimeters of fresh snow was measured in the highest areas of the Crespadoro territory. The precipitation affected various areas starting from an altitude of 800 meters. In Valchiampo, it has been snowing on Monday and Tuesday. At the Piatta di Campodalbero, 1200 meters above Crespadoro, snow fell heavily throughout Monday. The same situation applies to the Gingerino refuge in Montefalcone di Recoaro, managed by Alessandro Giambellini. At an altitude of 1600 on the ridge that divides the Chiampo Valley from the Agno Valley, the snow cover exceeded 30 centimeters already in the early afternoon. The refuge cameras captured the heavy snowfall, with accumulations of half a meter around the structure. Snow exceeded 20 centimeters even on the Marana peak, at 1500 meters, overlooking Valchiampo. The flakes whitened the pyramidal mountain up to the first hamlets at the foot of the slopes. In the hamlets of Gebbani, Pasquali, Castagna, Ortomani, and others in the fraction's territory, on Monday morning at 8 o'clock, 5 centimeters of snow had already fallen on the ground. In Recoaro Mille, about twenty centimeters fell on the ground, and at the refuge at Alpe di Campogrosso under Sisilla, the snowfall was copious. Abundant snowfall also occurred in the Small Dolomites area, depicting a practically wintry scene. The Pasubio area was completely covered in snow either, from the areas above Valli del Pasubio, towards Pian delle Fugazze.
The images from the Pasubio shrine cameras are really striking. The Carega group was covered in snow, with peaks of snow on the summits hosting the Fraccaroli refuge. Out-of-season snowfall on the Asiago plateau and in the pre-Alpine area. After threatening snow all Sunday, the residents of the plateau woke up on Monday to a light snow covering the roofs and temperatures reminiscent of early December rather than late April. Indeed, during the night, the temperature dropped below zero, and throughout Monday, the temperatures remained just above freezing. Thus, favoring more snowfall, which indeed started falling heavily in the afternoon; mixed with rain in Asiago but more consistent in Foza and Treschè Conca di Roana, where, towards the evening, it also began to "stick" on the roads, although it was still just over a centimeter. Much more consistent was snowfall on the heights where the snow cover reached 10 centimeters of fresh snow, and above 2 thousand meters altitude exceeded 20 centimeters of freshly fallen snow, bringing the accumulation in the highest points to about half a meter. However, the bad weather did not cause any traffic problems. Mount Grappa was also covered in white, where it snowed just above 600 meters altitude, with the disturbance becoming progressively more consistent as you climb, reaching about 7 centimeters of fresh snowfall on the summit, covering the Shrine with a soft white blanket. However, Grappa also recorded lower temperatures than the Seven Municipalities Plateau, with the thermometer never rising above -4 degrees afterward. On Sunday morning, the Arpav station even recorded -12.5 at 8 o'clock. According to forecasts, the temperatures will remain wintry at least until today, with minimums reaching -6 degrees in the central plateau basin, as well as the risk of snow continuing at least until today too.
