Heavy Snowfall in the Pyrenees

Heavy Snowfall in the Pyrenees

There’s been a lot of snow in the Pyrenees over the past few days, leading to powder conditions.

Snowfall of up to a metre has been reported in the past 72 hours in the French Pyrenees, but there’s been heavy snow in Andorra too, and good falls on the Spanish side as well.

This was Vallnord yesterday.

Temperatures should stay low, well below zero, meaning perfect conditions.
