todaySaturday, October 10

Machine translation Read Antoine's original, in French →

Cold front

A cold front type disturbance will cross our country during the night from Friday to Saturday morning. Saturday is looking very cloudy in the morning, with some showers mainly in the mountains. Clearing in the afternoon and rather dry.

Wind

The wind will be from the West sector and moderate. We're talking 15 to 30 km/h or more on the ridges. The Crêt-du-Midi is often hit by the West.

Thermal

Not relevant here ;-)

Clothes

0°C isotherm at 2800 metres. Crêt-du-Midi between 4 and 5°C Chalais between 11 and 16°C

Dangers

The arrival of a cold front is the thing I hate most in paragliding! It can bring big gusts of wind. The humidity and the clouds will also be the problem.

Info

- TMA Sion inactive, but watch out because that doesn't mean there are no planes. - The Chalais-Vercorin cable car is out of service until early December.
