SnowBrains Forecast: Up to a Foot for the Canadian Rockies This Weekend - SnowBrains
"A multi-day, mostly low-to-moderate impact storm cycle runs from Saturday night (01/10) through Tuesday night (01/13), with the Interior BC mountains picking up the best totals but also the trickiest snow quality as warmer air pushes in. Revelstoke stands out for overall accumulation, while Big White and RED Mountain see lighter, wind-affected refreshers that trend denser by late Sunday into Monday."
"Saturday night (01/10)-Sunday brings the cleanest start in the Interior, with snow levels generally sitting in the 2,000-3,400 feet range and snow quality mostly in the moderate/fair category. Revelstoke starts adding up right away, and Big White also benefits early while snow levels remain comfortably below its 4,950 feet base. Snow-to-liquid ratios during this opener generally hover around 11-13:1 at the higher resorts, so expect a reasonably carvable, supportive refresh rather than true blower."
"Sunday night-Monday is the main push for the BC interior, but it comes with a notable warm-up and a hit to snow quality, especially at lower elevations. At Revelstoke, snow levels rise through roughly 3,400 feet Sunday night to about 4,400-4,700 feet by Monday and Monday night, so the base (1,720 feet) is primed for wetter conditions while upper mountain stays snowy."
A multi-day, mostly low-to-moderate impact storm cycle runs Saturday night (01/10) through Tuesday night (01/13). Interior BC mountains will receive the best totals, with Revelstoke notable for overall accumulation while Big White and RED Mountain get lighter, wind-affected refreshes. Snow levels start around 2,000–3,400 feet Saturday night–Sunday, producing moderate, supportive snow with snow-to-liquid ratios near 11–13:1 at higher resorts. The main push Sunday night–Monday brings a warm-up; snow levels rise to roughly 4,400–4,700 feet at Revelstoke and SLRs fall into the 6–7:1 range, yielding denser, wetter snow lower down. Winds increase at Big White, and the system tapers Monday night–Tuesday while the Canadian Rockies see lighter, colder accumulations.
