Weather comments : La journée est souvent bien ensoleillée avant que le ciel ne se voile en fin de journée. À noter toutefois, des brouillards parfois givrants au petit matin en basse vallée de l'Arve et Léman ainsi que dans le secteur de Bellegarde. Ils se dissipent rapidement, mais retardent les apparitions du soleil. Vent variable, faible. Cette nuit: Le ciel est clair toute la nuit. Etablissement, en deuxième partie de nuit, d'un vent d'Est modéré, dans le massif du Mont-Blanc ; atténuation ensuite.

Roads conditions : Equipements spéciaux obligatoires. Prudence
