Snow Sure Score
33
Poor

Limited snow coverage - consider other options.

Snow King Mountain's Snow Sure Score of 33/100 reflects poor conditions primarily due to inadequate snow depth, with only 9cm at the base and 27cm at the summit, significantly below optimal levels. Although recent snowfall of 5.95cm in the last 24 hours and a total of 116.4cm for the season provide some coverage, the forecasted 19.4cm over the next two weeks may not sufficiently enhance skiing conditions. Visitors should anticipate limited skiing options and subpar conditions, particularly at lower elevations.

Depth: 5.4/30Recent: 9.6/25Forecast: 8.3/25Historic: 10/20

Overcast skies today with moderate snowfall expected, creating fresh powder on the slopes and improving ski conditions. Snowfall will intensify overnight and into tomorrow, with heavy accumulations and gusty winds likely, so guests should be prepared for reduced visibility and challenging conditions. The snow will continue through midweek, accompanied by colder temperatures and occasional snow showers, before clearing and turning much colder with overcast to partly cloudy skies later in the week. Plan for changing weather, dress warmly, and anticipate excellent snow coverage for outdoor activities, but monitor for wind and visibility impacts, especially during the heaviest snowfall periods.

Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has declined compared to the 30-year average, with the 5-year mean at 112.0 cm versus the long-term average of 125.7 cm. The data shows significant year-to-year variability, including a notably low snowfall in 2023 (62.9 cm) followed by a rebound in 2024 (109.1 cm), which is slightly above the recent 5-year average but still below the 30-year norm. This pattern suggests a downward trend in overall snowfall, punctuated by occasional high-snowfall years, and highlights increased variability and the occurrence of significant anomalies in recent seasons.
