Take a walk in the departure area of T2 at Geneva airport this Saturday around 10am and you will see plenty of evidence that it's been a beautiful, glorious spring week in many ski resorts.
As the departing skiers stand in the check in queues, it will be pretty easy to spot who are the goggle-wearers, who prefers sunglasses and those who have had the forethought to remove their eyewear whenever possible to avoid that most telltale sign of sunny ski holidays - panda eyes.
Since the last snowfall during the early part of last week, most of the Alps have been basking in spring sunshine with temperatures gradually working their way upwards. It's been one of those weeks when you feel that winter is finally giving way.
The forecast is sunshine for the rest of the week, with a possible drop in temperatures towards the weekend. If you're worried about snow depths don't be - this season's excellent snowfalls mean that most resorts will have ample snow for you right till the end!
