Western Alps: two dry days, then rain on Thursday

Quick reads. Lasting takeaways.

Weather

The western Alps get two more dry days. Chamonix reaches 22 degrees today and 20 on Wednesday. Then it turns. On Thursday rain moves in, and Zermatt's high drops to 14 degrees, seven below today. Plan the long ridge or hut day for Wednesday. Thursday is better for valley walks, with a waterproof shell in your pack rather than left at home.
