Will there be enough firewood for the winter? Demand is exploding and the cold is arriving in France, especially with the first snows.

All Saints’ Day holidays in the snow. A more than welcome guest in La Mongie (Hautes-Pyrénées). If the ski area and the ski lifts are not yet open, the happiness of a ride in a few centimeters of powder is very present. “It cracks under the shoes, it’s great”, rejoices a vacationer. TO 2,000 meters above sea level, up to 15 centimeters of snow covering the ground.

In the Alps and the Jura, the first snowflakes fell in abundance and in the Béarn, the snow plows intervened early Wednesday, November 3 in the morning to clear the roads. In Alsace, the snow is not there yet, but the weather is autumnal. “To warm up, we’re going to make seasonal vegetables”, says a woman shopping. Very difficult to give up the mild Indian summer, still late October.
