The avalanche risk is already up to 4/5 in the French Alps - which more or less rules out off-piste skiing for now.
Generally, the early-season cover is excellent above the 1600m mark - but it will warm up this week.
More than half a metre of snow will fall in places over the next two days, and it will get colder too - for a while.
In the central and eastern Alps, there's over two metres of settled snow at altitude.
The next storm will probably be the heaviest - with over a metre of snow expected in some places in 24 hours.
In places, there'a 35-45cm of fresh snow on the slopes - and more to come midweek.
Great news for the high-altitude resorts: the snowy spell is set to continue until next week.
Sunday night is when we'll probably see the heaviest falls.
Good news for the glaciers. Snow is expected at altitude on both Tuesday and Sunday.
