Weather & roads Munich to Italy

[N24]

Cross posting from the Roads section...


I'm planning to drive from Munich to either Milan, Turin then into France.

Munich's had a fair bit of snow recently, but any local knowledge on likely road conditions through Austria/Swizerland?Are routes open, or likely to be subject to closure?

thanks!

Doh.

Lower passes like the Brenner are open all the time.
Higher passes like the Stelvio are only open a few months of the year.
Medium passes are somewhere between the two. It depends on the weather.

60 seconds in Google got me to this page:

Perfect! I did find some similar sites last night then became entirely distracted by them and started day dreaming about re-visiting the area in the summer!
Sounds like I should be able to get through without too trouble. Thanks!!!
