A weather-model figure, worked out the same way for every ski area, and lower than what actually falls. Use it to compare ski areas, not against the resort’s own totals. How we measure →

Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.
We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.

The five add up to the 100-point Powder Score: more fresh snow, more on the way and colder air all push it up. How we measure
Great Brook Ski Touring Center is a ski area in United States, at about 74 m. Its mapped area is about 2.5 km across.
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 97 cm of snowfall a season, 2,406th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 382nd in the United States. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2014/15 (146 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (48 cm). February is usually the snowiest month, with about 31 cm.

Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.

Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
