The Alps is basking in glorious sunshine at the moment, after intense weather conditions last week it is a warming change. In the departures lounge at Grenoble Airport guests were rocking out their goggle tans after a sunny ending to their Chalet holiday.
This week sunshine and blue skies are forecast every day! Lunching on a sunny terrace with a view of the snowy mountains, Apres at the Rond Point and La Folie Douce will be divine in these Spring conditions. Moving into next week we have a mix of colder temperatures, sunshine and light snow showers.
As Spring skiing slowly moves in, temperatures are rising in the 3 Valleys with highs of 10 degrees and lows of 0 degrees. The coldest wind chill is forecast at -2 which is a lot warmer than last week’s -16!
The Meribel valley currently has a reading of 65cm of snow at resort level (1450m) and 195cm at Altitude (2700m).
The Courchevel valley currently has a reading of 114cm at resort level (1850m) and 174cm at Altitude (2700m).
Avalanche risk is 2 out of 5 today, however, with temperatures warming up the snow pack is loose and it is strongly recommended not to go off piste unless you are with a guide.
