SnowBrains Forecast: 75cm of Snow for the Alps This Week - SnowBrains
"A strong midweek storm brings widespread Alpine snowfall through Saturday, followed by a quieter stretch and a lower-confidence late-week reload attempt. The Wednesday night through Friday system has the best agreement across the models, and it should deliver a broad 25 cm-60 cm for many resorts, with the highest French terrain capable of 60 cm-90 cm in the wetter solutions. Snow levels fall quickly on Thursday and favor snow at most mid-mountain bases,"
"Intensity spreads exist, with the ECMWF and the ICON running wetter and the AIFS and the GDPS a bit less aggressive, but the overall setup still points to widespread accumulations. Many resorts land in a healthy 25 cm-60 cm zone, with the highest French resorts able to reach 60 cm-90 cm, and the snowiest pockets of western Austria pushing closer to 40 cm-70 cm when the wetter guidance wins out."
A strong midweek storm will impact the Alps Wednesday night through Friday, focusing heaviest snowfall from the Northern French Alps into western Austria. Models agree on timing while intensity varies, with wetter guidance producing higher totals. Many resorts expect 25–60 cm, highest French terrain possibly 60–90 cm, and localized western Austria pockets 40–70 cm in wetter scenarios. Snow levels fall sharply Thursday into roughly 700–1,200 meters, supporting mid-mountain snowfall and SLRs near 12–16:1 for moderately fluffy snow. Winds mostly remain manageable though some runs show 40–55 km/h ridge gusts. Saturday brings a lighter wraparound phase, then a lower-confidence late-week reload varying from minor to 20–50 cm.
