Off season

No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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.

Nagyvillám Sípálya Visegrád, in Hungary, runs from 241 m at the base to 373 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 0.5 km across, with 8 marked runs and 10 lifts (about 1.6 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 30 cm of snowfall a season, 2,920th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 5th in Hungary. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (68 cm), brought more than 6 times as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (11 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 12 cm.

Compared with what is nearby

Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. The weather model works on cells about 30 km across; ski areas in the same cell get the same figure, and these numbers cannot separate them.

88% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 30 cm, and 8 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2015/16 with 11 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 68 cm (6.2 times as much). For 71% of the 7 ski areas in Hungary, the leanest winter was the same 2015/16: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
