I got caught in a snowstorm in July in a valley coming down the galibier so I’d definitely go safe and take something waterproof with you. Wasn’t forecast, it’s just one of those mad things.

It depends how early (or late) you are heading out. It can be very, very cold at altitude in the Alps in September, especially first thing.

I have a trip coming up at the end of the month to the French alps, the idea of an insulated gilet/jacket is starting to seem like a good idea (or will normal layering do the job?)
