Snowmaking & powder alerts

Get an email when a ski resort you care about can make snow, or when a powder day is on the way. Alerts are free and come from NOAA's forecast, checked every hour.

  • Snowmaking windows: when the forecast shows hours cold and dry enough to make snow (wet-bulb below 28°F / −2°C), or only great ones (below 25°F / −4°C).
  • Powder: when 3″, 6″ or 12″ of new snow is forecast in the next 48 hours.
  • Powder near you: when any resort within 100, 200 or 300 miles of a town is forecast for 3″, 6″ or 12″, in one email that lists them all.

At most one email per resort (or area) per alert type per day, never between 10 PM and 6 AM resort time. To sign up for a resort, look it up and tap 🔔 Get alerts.
