Weather
Another beautiful day. Perfectly clear skies this morning, then a veil of clouds or a few cirrus clouds will appear in the afternoon. As yesterday, a few cumulus clouds may also develop over the mountains, without becoming threatening. This is becoming a recurring pattern: maximum temperatures are still typical of June.
Freezing level at 3200 m. Very light north to northwest winds at altitude.
Currently at 8am it is 0°C up at the Pisaillas, 6°C at the top of Bellevarde, 4 degrees up on solaise and +1°C here in town. Today we can expect a top of 2°C in the village.
