SnowSure™ blend — verified model weighting
The black line is not a simple average. For La Plagne (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

However, the current season's snowfall is 8% below the recent 5-year average and 4% below the 30-year average, reflecting a notable dip compared to both short- and long-term norms. The 2023 season stands out as an anomaly with significantly higher snowfall, while the most recent season marks a return to below-average conditions. Overall, variability remains high, but the latest data suggests a short-term decrease following a period of above-average snowfall.
