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 Snowmass (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 267.5 cm, notably higher than the 30-year average of 223.7 cm, indicating a recent upward trend. The 2022 and 2021 seasons were particularly anomalous, with snowfall totals (362.8 cm and 328.7 cm, respectively) significantly exceeding both short- and long-term averages. However, the most recent season saw a sharp decline, with snowfall at just 62% of the 5-year average and 74% of the 30-year average, marking a substantial drop from the preceding high-snowfall years. This suggests increased variability and a potential shift away from the recent upward trend.

Snowmass Snow History

Average annual snowfall is 328cm with an average of 124 snowfall days per season. The table below shows monthly averages across 30 seasons of archive data (modeled snowpack at mid-elevation).
