Current situation and outlook
It's rather complicated this time. In principle, the Alps are in a westerly current that is carrying a series of fronts towards us. An area of low pressure over the British Isles sits in the background as the controlling center. A large-scale area of high pressure stretching from Eastern Europe to Scandinavia is in the way of the westerly flow. The disturbances will therefore be transported by the British-Atlantic low pressure system as far as the Alps, but will then not really get any further. Specifically, a warm front will reach us today (Wednesday), bringing warmer and partly foehn-like weather. This will be followed by a cold front that will arrive in the west tomorrow afternoon and then work its way east and south. The cold front in the afternoon/evening will probably also bring some intense, thundery precipitation, but this will not last long. The snow line will drop significantly and is likely to be in the higher valleys, at least in the eastern Alps. It will remain higher in the west.
