The weather in the Alps has been relatively stable for some time now.

 

Last week we saw some very warm temperatures and a rapid thaw at lower altitudes. This week, freezing levels are lower, though it is still mild with spring snow conditions very much in evidence at lower altitudes.

 

Over the next few days, it will turn a fraction cooler but remain mostly dry in the Alps, with variable cloud cover and some nuisance-value Saharan dust lingering in places.

 

Snow conditions remain pretty good across most of the Alps, with the most consistent snow at altitude and on north-facing slopes. Lower down, you should expect more pronounced freeze-thaw cycles but nothing too dramatic. These may become a little less pronounced later in the weekend and early next week.

 

In terms of snow depths, they are close to or even above average across much of the French Alps, as well as some western Italian resorts (e.g. La Thuile), but below average across most other parts of the Alps.

 

Across the pond, the western Canadian ski resorts are faring much better than their counterparts in the western US…
