Yes I saw from the Salzburg Airport webcam that snow was clearly present on the slopes to the East of the runway.

Spent many a happy skiing holiday in nearby Zell am See before I got married and had kids..can't possibly afford it now!   :( ;)

Good luck with the brakes. I plan to do an oil change next week on my Omega. I just hope it warms up a little.  :y
