SnowSure™ blend — verified model weighting
The black line is not a simple average. For Grand Massif (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, snowfall has fluctuated significantly, with notable peaks in 2020 and 2023 and lower totals in 2022 and 2024. The current season's snowfall is 5% above the recent 5-year average but remains 21% below the 30-year average, indicating a short-term uptick that does not match longer-term historical norms. This suggests increased variability in recent years, with occasional high-snowfall seasons not fully offsetting periods of below-average accumulation.
