snow-forecast.com seems to be suggesting a bit of a change with some snow, but not a big dump, next week - 14/15/16 Feb.
Getting colder after a warm spell, maybe the whole weather system will change back to something more usual for winter in the Tarentaise (3 valleys to Tignes/Val d'Isere)

Brooksy,
Are you sure?
OMG I don't suppose that will last longer than a few hours, with all 5 hundred and whatever it was snow cannons going flat out :shock:
:D :D :D :D

Yes, they replace sunshine with some snowflakes in forecasts for some resorts. Well 1 cm won't change anything, it needs a big dump or a week of snowfall and there is no sign of this happening yet. The pressure stays high and it has to be low for snow to fall.

I was looking at the Ski Club of Great Britain website, and they definitely say it's going to get colder next week in Courchevel (sorry everyone but I haven't checked all the resorts - there are an awful lot of them).
They now say 4 cm of snow on Wednesday and the freezing level will drop to below 1300 day and night for next Tuesday and Wednesday 16th. So even if it doesn't snow much they should be able to make plenty of the artificial stuff, as long as the water doesn't run out (does anyone know how much they've got left in their reservoirs?).
