Snow overview for France

Monday 20 February 2012

Light snowfall refreshed the pistes nicely for many featured French resorts over the weekend and into Monday 20th February. The great news is that on Monday the clouds had largely cleared in time for skiing, delivering a beautiful bluebird day. This was typical in Flaine (99/375cm) and La Rosiere (212/345cm) where around 10cm of snow fell in the early hours of Monday creating beautiful fresh conditions in lovely sunshine for visitors during the day. The Portes du Soleil area also welcomed 10cm of snowfall on Monday, although low lying cloud made visibility rather poor in certain areas such as Avoriaz (250/290cm).

Many resorts, including Chamonix (50/430cm), enjoyed a light dusting of 5cm on Sunday 19th February and like other neighbouring resorts it was a bluebird day on Monday. They also had all 58 lifts open so skiers could enjoy a huge amount of superb fresh terrain. Down the road the Ski Club Leader in Argentiere (150/430cm) commented that the conditions were superb over the weekend.
