After a couple of heavy snowfalls last week, followed by further snow yesterday, the forecast is again for heavy snowfalls later this week. The ensembles indicate heavy falls on Friday and Sunday:

Here is the ensembles for 6E45N – roughly corresponding to Bourg d’Oisans

The ensembles for 6E46N – Annecy

The ensembles for 7E46N – Chamonix / Argentiere

The ensembles for 7E45N – Sestriere / Sauze d’Oulx

The Three Valleys lies exactly between these four coordinates, so we have created a composite picture

In summary, major dumps likely on Friday and Sunday, possibly a meter of snow in total. So for those driving to the alps at the weekend, take care on the roads, and here’s looking forward to a powder-filled weekend.
