This page brings together the 9-day weather forecast for Alpe du Grand-Serre: four days in detail from Météo-France (minimum and maximum temperatures, expected snowfall, 0°C isotherm), then an outlook through day 9, along with the ski area snow depth. The Northern French Alps avalanche bulletin is also available below. Forecasts are calibrated to the resort's actual altitude; the first four days come from Météo-France models (AROME/ARPEGE), the outlook from a longer-range, less precise model.

Forecasts from Météo-France (AROME/ARPEGE models) for the first 4 days, calibrated to the exact resort altitude. The 0°C isotherm is given as a range (min/max over the day) to honestly reflect its variation throughout the day.

Longer-range outlook (ECMWF European model): indicative only, less reliable at this range, and not included in the snowfall total.

Snow line over the coming days in Alpe du Grand-Serre

  • Monday, midnight to 2am: snow line around 2,000 m, rain at the base, snow higher up.

Snow line: the altitude above which precipitation falls as snow. It is computed hour by hour, during precipitation, from Météo-France temperature and humidity at altitude: it is the altitude where the wet-bulb temperature rises above 1.3°C (the same definition as the German weather service's snowfall line). Météo-France days only, not the longer-range outlook.

Snow quality

Qualification de l'enneigement : L'enneigement reste faible en Oisans. Massif localement saupoudré dés 2100m, mais pas de sous-couche sous 2700 / 3000m selon le versant. 20 à 30cm de neige récente au-dessus de 3000m, localement 40cm vers l'Olan ou la Meije. Crevasses parfois à peine cachées. Qualité de la neige : Fine couche de neige regelée dés 2000m samedi matin. Plus haut, 5 à 10cm de neige restée plus froide vers 2500m, 30 à 40cm de neige récente parfois densifiée par le vent au-dessus de 3000m. Sous-couche absente ou très irrégulière sous 2700 / 3000m.
2/5
Risk level

Au-dessus de 2900m indice de risque limité, plus bas indice faible.

Stability: MANTEAU INSTABLE EN ALTITUDE DANS LA COUCHE DE NEIGE RECENTE, PARFOIS TRAVAILLEE PAR LE VENT

Déclenchements provoqués : En toute orientation au-dessus de 2900 / 3000m, les 30 à 50cm de neige récente hébergent parfois encore quelques instabilités. Si le manteau est en cours de stabilisation, le passage d'une personne peut encore suffir à déclencher une avalanche, avec des cassures pouvant être supérieures à 50cm dans les accumulations formées par le vent de Nord de vendredi. Dans un large secteur Nord au-dessus de 3200m, des grains anguleux ont pu se former dans la couche de neige datant d'octobre, rendant le manteau un peu plus sensible, et pouvant favoriser des cassures plus larges. Plus bas que 2900 / 3000m, la couche de neige diminue rapidement, et le risque d'avalanche devient faible et se cantonne uniquement aux versants ombragés. Départs spontanés : Peu probables. Autre : Sur les glaciers, les crevasses sont parfois encore ouvertes ou a peine cachées par la couche de neige récente.
