The weather forecast for next week in the UK is looking rather bleak/exciting, depending on your position on snowy conditions. Weather warnings are coming in fast as the temperature is set to dip below the freezing mark, with our first taste of a white winter making an appearance. Weather experts are saying that this will just be the start of a “horror winter”, with signs pointing towards the potential for record snowfalls and ice cold conditions in Europe. 

Whilst such conditions are likely to bring chaos to businesses in Britain with the inevitably frustrating transport problems, it can only be a good thing for the French Alps. When it’s cold and snowy in Britain, it’s colder and snowier in Val d’Isère. We have already had some epic early snowfall in Val this year, so fingers crossed we are in for another year of powder skiing!
