Megève, located at an altitude of 1100 m, with peaks reaching 2370 m, in the Northern French Alps, benefits from specific alpine weather conditions. This page brings together the 9-day weather forecast for Megève: 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.

Snow line over the coming days in Megève

  • Monday, midnight to 1pm: snow line around 1,600 m (1,500 m to 1,900 m during the spell), 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.
