SnowSure™ blend — verified model weighting
The black line is not a simple average. For Timberline Lodge (cascades), 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
Snowfall over the past five years has been significantly above the long-term 30-year average, with the 5-year average reaching 624.1 cm compared to the 30-year average of 397.5 cm. This indicates a marked upward trend in recent snowfall. However, the current season's snowfall is only 58% of the recent 5-year average and 91% of the 30-year average, reflecting a substantial drop from the elevated levels seen in previous years. This recent decline represents a notable anomaly following several years of above-average snowfall.
