And it's getting warmer. Looks like some of the moles were right - short
sharp winter then back to the sunbathing :-)

Bit of an inversion there - looks like the upper slopes will be affected =
more than lower!

It's forecast to get colder by the weekend with some more precipitation =

Yep, same weather expected here, but I must say this is a mild winter so
far.

BTW the lower slopes - main station - sits in the shadows and is a cold spot
anyway.

It does seem so - it was strange walking around in a T-shirt in Sauze =
D'Oulx in the midst of winter!

Ah, I see.

Just been out on my south-facing balconcy - this is early March weather. 13
°C in the shade, snow on the roof melting like crazy, and we get two more
days of this with rought 2 to 3 derees warmer.

Repeat after me: Climate change, climate change, ...

OK - it gets cold now and then, last time they were lucky and the weather
came from the North, but the settled weather periods this winter have been
way warmer than normal.

Ooops, that's a shame, a friend of mine is out there this week.

But, just how does one pronounce the name?

My first ski trip ever, 1993 in Chatel, saw temps in the 20s
