SnowSure™ Forecast Range

Daily Snowfall Forecast by Model

Black line = verified SnowSure™ blend (not a simple average). Weights update weekly from measured snowfall at SNOTEL stations and resort reports.

SnowSure™ blend — verified model weighting

The black line is not a simple average. For Breckenridge (rockies), we combine seven global weather models using weights learned from daily forecast verification — comparing each model's prediction to measured snowfall (SNOTEL, resort reports, ERA5).

  • 1.Horizon buckets: days 1–3, 4–7, and 8–14 each get separate weights — short-range skill differs from long-range.
  • 2.Regional calibration: weights come from verified error in this geography (Rockies, Alps, Japan, etc.), recalculated weekly.
  • 3.Ground truth only: we never grade a forecast against another model — only against measured snow.

5-Yr Avg by Now

Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has increased to 175.6 cm, notably higher than the 30-year average of 153.8 cm, indicating a recent upward trend. Despite this, the current season's snowfall is significantly below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at only 70% and 80% of those benchmarks, respectively. This suggests a marked anomaly for the current season, interrupting the recent pattern of above-average snowfall. Overall, while the long-term trend has been positive, the current season represents a significant deviation from recent norms.

Breckenridge Snow History

Average annual snowfall is 294cm with an average of 139 snowfall days per season. The table below shows monthly averages across 30 seasons of archive data (modeled snowpack at mid-elevation).
