SnowSure MLBeta · v2.0

Extended OutlookDays 8–14

Machine-learning blend of all 7 weather models, trained on 1.48M historical forecasts. On the most recent gate window, +35.9% more accurate at day 8–14 than the simple model average.

0cm
predicted total
2.3cm vs. weather-model avg
Quiet stretch expected
The model predicts no significant snowfall over days 8–14. Some weather models disagree and show 2.3cm — long-range models often over-forecast precipitation this far out.

Long-range outlooks are inherently uncertain — treat days 8–14 as directional, not a precise forecast. Shorter horizons (days 1–7) still come from the individual weather models above.

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 in recent seasons. However, the current season's snowfall is notably below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at only 90% and 94% of those benchmarks, respectively. The 2023 season stands out as an anomaly with exceptionally high snowfall, while other recent years have remained closer to long-term norms. This variability suggests increased fluctuations in annual snowfall, with the current season marking a return to below-average conditions.
