The World Cup in Harrachov Cancelled Due to Bad Weather Conditions

4.12.2009

The World Cup in Ski Jumping and Nordic Combined in Harrachov, 11. 12. – 13. 12. 2009 had to be cancelled because of bad weather conditions.

Harrachov organizers have done their best to hold the competitions of the World Cup in ski dumping and Nordic combined in the given term. Regarding organizational and technical matters, everything have been prepared, however bad weather conditions did not help us to produce artificial snow.

Since Thursday early morning we had been trying to produce artificial snow, however the suitable temperatures were only temporary. Even on the places where the temperatures reached 5 degrees Celsius below zero, the snow production was very low.

The weather forecast is not any better for further days and that is why we were compelled to cancel the competitions, even though we put all the effort for their preparation.
