Veabird Snow for ski resorts
The forecast your guests already check, turned into a daily operations tool, with every prediction scored against real snow in public.
What you get
Every run, every hour
Surface conditions on each mapped run at its top, middle and bottom: powder, corduroy, corn, crust, ice. Driven by elevation, aspect, sun, wind loading, grooming and skier traffic.
Snowmaking windows
Hours of snowmaking temperatures (by wet-bulb) at the base, mid-mountain and summit for the next 10 nights, with prime hours flagged.
Grooming priorities
Tonight's list of runs most likely to end the day crusty, bumped or slushy and refreeze, weighted by traffic.
Lift wind holds
Gusts at each lift's top station against typical limits for chairs, gondolas, trams and surface lifts, for the next 3 days.
Storm ranges, not guesses
Low, likely and high totals from 4 global and up to 5 high-resolution models, powder-day chances, snow density ("champagne" to "cement"), snow line and rain-on-snow alerts.
A report that writes itself
A drafted morning snow report from the forecast, ready to edit and publish, plus a free widget for your website.
Accuracy you can check
Every day we save our forecast and score it against SNOTEL snow stations. The scores, by model and by days ahead, are published on each resort's forecast page. Our blend weights each model by how accurate it has actually been, at your resort once there's enough data. With a partner resort, we can verify against your own snow stake and weather station and tune the model to your mountain.
