We are watching a west-northwest flow running at up to 117 km/h at 700mb into the Alps and wider Europe, with the surface low down to 1016.1 hPa between 2026-11-02 and 2026-11-04. It is carrying moisture up to 14.2 kg/m², with mid-level temperatures of -17°C to -7.2°C through the mountains. Narvik carries the biggest signal at 33.5cm across the window, with 6.3 models contributing on average. At Narvik the freezing level on the snow days sits between base and summit: snow on the upper mountain, rain possible low down. At 117 km/h aloft we would expect wind holds on upper lifts and a lot of the snow moved around. The call changes if model agreement loosens, the window slides later, or the freezing level trends higher.
Snow by day
Nov 1 – Nov 5, with a day either side. For each resort: where the freeze line sits against the mountain, then what falls — snow in cm, rain in mm — and the day read from those two numbers.
