Week 12: The arrival of Spring
There was no change in the weather till Thursday,
when, suddenly, the temperatures changed for the higher. Much higher. Suddenly,
from being minus something, we found ourselves at plus around 7-8°C. Then,
on Saturday afternoon, it began to rain. First just a light shower, then, by
Sunday morning, more seriously. This has set off avalanches at altitude and the
pistes are anything but pleasant. In fact, much of the mountain was closed this
Sunday. In short, spring has arrived with a bang. Fortunately, the forecast is
for a drop in temperatures again and some snow before the end of the
week....
