weather in LePuy in April

We start our chemin from LePuy to the Pyrenees on April 1. Anyone have an idea of what kind of weather to expect in this part of France in the months of April and early May. How cold might it be?
 
Holoholo automatically captures your footpaths, places, photos, and journals.
You can check weather history here:

http://www.wunderground.com/

Choose a destination (Rodez, Lyon, Toulouse, etc.). Find the "History" section on the page. Choose a month, day, and year. When the day comes up, select "Month." You will get a page with a calendar and tabular weather data for the month and year selected.

Rodez in April 2009 averaged in the mid-fifties, and it rained on over one-half the days.

I started on April 2nd in 2013. It was VERY wet and muddy underfoot. Up on the Aumont-Aubrac plateau there was about 4 inches of fresh snow which only lasted for about 3 or 4 days. These pictures will give you a hint. It was spectacular though!

Bonjour Hipolito! You might find this website helpful : <http://www.meteo-express.com/previ-saiso.html> ... keeping in mind that these are long-range forecasts and an indicator only ... and as we all know weather can be a fickle friend 😉

but not a bad idea to keep an eye 👁 on the site ahead of your start from Le Puy ...
