Hi
I'm going to Megeve on Thursday for fours days skiing, does anybody know how things are looking out there? I know it has been quite warm generally and I understand that it is getting a little colder with a small amount of snow forecast.
Cheers

Jcosh, I think that's about right. Our place is not far as the snow flies, and tends to get similar weather. We're not there at the moment but it looks as though less than 10cms fell last night, and that although that gave a very thin covering on the grass at the bottom end of things, that's already looking patchy. I would guess that if nothing much changes you'll be OK on the upper slopes (Les Saisies is fine above 1600m) but have to download by lift. But there might be a bit more snow between now and when you arrive, or over the weekend. Fingers crossed.
Someone might be along with more first-hand information. Hope you have a good weekend.

Well I just looked at the webcams and the weather looks quite cloudy and wet. Let's hope it is snowing and not raining at Cote 2000. If anyone is out there please do post the conditions. There must be at least one snowhead around!! Jcosh, if you are there from Thursday 13 - Sunday 16 pm me so we can meet for a beer. Are you there for the Races as well or just for a holiday. When I drove through last weekend it all looked very green in the resort and wet snow on most runs. Cote 2000 looked ok hi up. I hope it is snowing now!!

snowcrazy, we're not far away. It's snowing here at 1500m, but marginal. A lot will be dumped tomorrow, but I'd be surprised if it snows at resort level in Megeve or on the lower slopes. But up top, at Cote 2000, should be excellent. It's looking far better than last weekend, that's for sure.

pam w, Hi, Well not much good news I am afraid today. Was up at Cote 2000 today and although the race course was good, not much fresh snow to be found. By lunch it was all very heavy and time to go play. Went over to the top of princess and then on upwards and found some great jumps in soft snow which was fun but only just made it back to mid station and then had to go down by lift. They are taqlking about more RAIN at resort level, lets hope it snows high up and then clears for the races at the weekend.

snowcrazy, it's ridiculously warm, still well above freezing and it's just about bed time. I actually rather enjoyed the slushy snow this afternoon, but that was on piste. Very spring like. Fantastic sunny day though, and another one tomorrow. But Saturday looks a bit grim again. Were you racing?

I was out there on Friday and it had stacks of fresh powder, an absolutely brilliant day despite the grey weather and hefty lunch bill after walking into a pricier than expected mountain restaurant!
We have had a few warm days since though, but there was enough good stuff on Friday to last a while.
