It’s a cool and snowy start to March in the Alps, and there’s\u00a0MUCH more to come!<\/span><\/h6>\n

The white stuff is due\u00a0especially thick and fast on Friday evening and Saturday morning in most French resorts, providing oodles of fresh\u00a0powder for\u00a0the lucky devils skiing next week. \u00a0Italy is getting a good dusting, with the Milky Way already seeing half a metre of snow over the last 3 days.<\/span><\/p>\n
