5-day forecast, snow depth & avalanche bulletin
Val d’Isère, located at an altitude of 1850 m, with peaks reaching 3450 m, in the Northern French Alps, benefits from specific alpine weather conditions. This page brings together the 9-day weather forecast for Val d’Isère: 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: 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
Au-dessus de 2800m indice de risque limité, plus bas indice faible.
Stability: Hivernal en haute altitude, faible enneigement plus bas.
Déclenchements provoqués : - Au-dessus de 2800/3000 m, les 10/20 cm de neige récente ont été transportés par le vent. En résultent quelques petites instabilités en neige densifiée plutôt identifiables, encore assez réactives. Ces plaques occasionnent de petites avalanches, taille 1. - Dans les versant Nord au dessus de 2800/3000 m, les couches fragiles persistantes sont encore peu enfouies et donc sollicitables. Cassures généralement 30/40 cm, voire 50 cm dans les secteurs mieux servis ce jeudi, secteur col du Petit Saint Bernard. L'emprise des plaques est encore limitée par l'enneigement modeste, on s'attend donc surtout à des taille 1, en terrain bien dégagé et lisse on peut atteindre la rare taille 2. - Plus bas que 2800/3000 m, le manteau était humide et a partiellement regelé, neutralisant d'éventuelles instabilités.Départs spontanés : petites purges en terrain raide en versants ensoleillés, seulement au delà de 2800/3000 m où la neige est tombée froide.
