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 Familienskigebiet Gries (alps), 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 slightly exceeded the 30-year average, indicating a modest upward trend. However, snowfall has been highly variable, with the 2023 season standing out as a significant anomaly at 296.1 cm—more than double the surrounding years, which all fell below both the 5-year and 30-year averages. The current season's snowfall is substantially lower than both historical averages, at just 41% of the 5-year and 44% of the 30-year norms, highlighting a sharp decline from recent patterns. This variability underscores the influence of outlier years on short-term averages and suggests increased unpredictability in seasonal snowfall.
