Latest snow forecast

Updated: 5.30pm Sunday 26 January 2025

The weather in the Alps remains very unsettled with a complex storm system set to affect the Alps on Monday and Tuesday, before the weather quietens down again on Wednesday.

 

This new storm will bring significant snow to some of the Alps, with the higher resorts of France (e.g. Val d’Isère, Alpe d’Huez, Chamonix), the far south-east of Switzerland (e.g. St Moritz) and the central-eastern Italian Alps (e.g. Madesimo, Livigno, Passo Tonale) likely to be most favoured, with 40-70cm or more above 2000m by Tuesday night.

 

Most other Alpine regions will receive some useful snow but, with the rain/snow limit all over the place, rain will also be a nuisance at times lower down, particularly on Monday and in the southern Alps.

 

As a result, the lower valleys and resorts will not see much of a net increase in snow, although the complex nature of this storm means that there may be some surprises…
