How we calculate this

Wet-bulb: Stull (2011), a near sea-level approximation. Alpine pressure effects and very cold, dry conditions limit accuracy. Potential hours use a −2°C threshold; equipment, water and operating decisions remain unknown. Snow balance uses wet-bulb precipitation partition and a configurable degree-day melt factor. Uncalibrated research model.

How this comparison works+

Daily comparison selects the nearest stored issue to 24 hours earlier (within 6 hours); weekly uses 7 days (within 12 hours). At least six consecutive future hours must match. Source and model version must agree. The comparison describes changes in that forecast period.

This view uses a single forecast. Probabilities and historical accuracy scores are not available.

How does snowfall differ from snow depth?

Snowfall is the new snow that falls in a period. Snow depth is the total on the ground and also reflects earlier snow, melt and settling. PisteWindow’s forecast shows modelled snowfall as water in millimetres, not depth.

Before your ski day

When does the ski area open?

On 8 November 2026 the operator’s Info Live page said the first skiers are welcome from 4 December. The list of lifts and pistes showed them closed at that time. The official page shows what is open on the day you plan to ski.[3]

Is Glacier 3000 included?

No. The operator lists Glacier 3000 as its own ski area, and its lift status is a separate feed. This page covers Villars, Gryon and Les Diablerets only.[1][3]

Where do lift status and snow depth on this page come from?

Lift and piste status comes from the operator’s Info Live list for the three sectors. Snow depth comes from the SLF automatic station at Col de Bretaye (1,780 m), in the Villars sector. We found no station in the Gryon or Les Diablerets sectors. The operator’s own snow figure had no elevation and no current observation time, so it is not used.[3][4]

Are the 1,272, 1,800 and 2,100 m forecasts observations?

No. They are model values adjusted to 1,272, 1,800 and 2,100 m, calculated at one representative point (Villars valley station). For reference, the operator gives 1,272 m for the Villars gondola valley station and 2,107 m for the Grand Chamossaire mountain station.[2][3]
