Wow, yes it snowed this week in Chamonix, the first decent snowfall in several weeks!
Since Wednesday there have been rain and snow showers in Chamonix town, getting progressively colder during the week. Friday was especially stormy, and by Saturday morning there must have been 50 centimetres of fresh snow built up in the mid-alpine, with maybe 30-40cm total at around 2000m. It has created a nice cushion over the sandy refrozen spring snow that we had been skiing on.
