With the season getting closer by the day it's great news that next week will see a substantial weather front coming in loaded with snow. There are several resorts expecting upwards of half a metre of snow over the next week and many could boast a metre of snow in resort by the beginning of December!
France will be crazy snowy next week. The big resorts are all expecting good amounts of snow, especially for November, and some of the lesser known resorts are set for some pretty big dumps — Risoul & Vars are forecast over 60cm! The snow is expected to arrive Monday night and fall continually until Thursday. With temperatures as low a -20° expected the following weekend, that's a great foundation for a base.
