Sunny weather until Friday forecasted, warming up considerably
from tomorrow :o( Les Arcs: 0 cms at 1100m, 50cms at the top, domain 9% open only (worse than neighbouring La Plagne). Just 10/117 runs, 7/57 lifts open. Not much better in the 3V, tho I hear Courchevel has managed to open a few more pistes.... eg Meribel is 12% open, 2cms at 1400m, 64cm at 2952m. This info updated this morning..... Pete |

I know the snow is pretty thin, but even when a perfect cover I've skied this time of year and only a few lifts were open in Tignes due to the number of people there. Still plenty skiing though. Is anyone out there actually skiing at the moment? It can't be all that bad. Where would you recommend in Tarentaise. the ever optimistic snow forecast dot com has some down for Sunday, and Meteo France has some for Saturday, so it may be ok for when I get the skis on on monday.

Bill Seddon : the ever optimistic snow forecast dot com has some down for Sunday, and Meteo France has some for Saturday, so it may be ok for when I get the skis on on monday. The Swiss forecasters are also forecasting snow for Sunday. I notice some nice looking snow fallen in the last 48 hours too - see e.g.: http://www.paradisecam.com/wsb/showp...p?cam=k72l&S=1 for Stockhütte (Klewenalp area) above Lake Luzern - 1286m. Nice and sunny there now but good cool temperatures means it won't melt in a hurry. Adrian -- Adrian Shaw ais@ Adran Cyfrifiadureg, Prifysgol Cymru, aber.

Kids booked into Ski School all week, so it limits us a bit. Might get out for an afternoon trip if it's needed. Just hoping the snow arrives over the weekend and the lack of snow puts everyone else off going :-) Bill |

Will update conditions on Fri/Sat but full sun forecast until then anyway, so they won't alter much.... And the likes of Tignes is a long drive from 3V for just an afternoon... Pete |
