HOW IT WORKS

SET IT UP WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK.

Your mountains, snowfall threshold and quiet hours determine which forecasts can trigger a notification.

01

CHOOSE YOUR MOUNTAINS

When signups are open, select Snow Alert on a resort page and allow browser notifications. Follow up to 10 mountains.

02

SET YOUR SIGNAL

Choose how much forecast snow warrants an alert and the hours you want to keep quiet.

03

WATCH FOR SNOW

When delivery is on and a fresh forecast meets your threshold, your browser can receive one combined update in 24 hours.

WHAT THE SIGNAL MEANS

A MODEL ESTIMATE, CLEARLY LABELED.

Snow Alerts use the same shared GeoMet snowfall forecast as the map. Check the resort’s mountain report for measured snowfall and open terrain.

  • ✓The notification identifies the reading as a model estimate.
  • ✓Stale, incomplete, or source-error reports are not eligible for delivery.
  • ✓Resort conditions and official mountain reports remain the final check.
