Reliable snow forecasts

Wed, 30 Nov 2011 14:52:10 GMT

I was just wondering which site people think is the most reliable for snow forecasts? I was looking for courchevel snow forecasts and they all say slightly different things, they are all pointing to snow falling this weekend but with some forecasting snow to start falling tomorrow and others forecasting it to not fall until next Monday I was just wondering if anyone had any particular favourite sites they always use to find out the forecast?

Thoughts?

Iy is notouirisly difficult to forecast more than 2-3 days ahead. I think you will find that forecasts for the next 2/3 days are pretty consistent and accurate.

I tend to use the J2ski snow report emails as they tend to be accurate in the shorter period. Anything after that is just a tease :)

We usually use www.meteofrance.com to check what's happening in France.
There's a Montagne section at the top of the main map where you can zoom into the different mountain areas for detailed reports.
On French tv channel TF1 at lunchtime today they were predicting a few flakes of snow over the weekend but snow throughout next week.
