Since this winter is definitely one of the harshest seasons that have been experienced by a lot of Americans, Google has chosen to improve its weather feature by providing snow conditions via a simple search.

Those accustomed to use Google search engine for every bit of information they require, are already familiar with the possibility to type [weather] and get the appropriate forecast for their city.

However, as simple as this might sound, it has gotten even simpler once Google Instant was introduced, since users only need to type [w] and immediately view the much-needed predictions.

Consequently, Google developer team have also decided to assist users in finding relevant info about the snow conditions for whenever they want to go skiing.

In order to accurately accomplish this task, they have partnered with OnTheSnow.com and SkiReport.com and are currently able to constantly provide updated data within their search results.

Users who want to view these details and plan their ski trips will not even need to change their searching habits, as snow info is displayed as soon as they type the name of their preferred resort.

Rather than just showing the current snow depth, the improved Google weather service will also present the terrain conditions and latest snow falls, as well as the overall availability of the resort.

The aforementioned sites that were chosen as partners of the Google team for this project will also include comprehensive user reviews that are meant to help tourists choose their destinations with greater ease.

Furthermore, user reviews are displayed too, in an attempt to create an objective overview of any ski resort one might be interested in.

Last but surely not least, relevant photos and images will be attached to each result, therefore all winter sports enthusiasts can get all the information they require within a single Google search.
