Powder days

Know when the powder's coming.

Bluepow tells you if 10 cm or more of fresh snow is likely at your resort by morning, up to three days out. So you can book the day off before everyone else does.

Resorts near you on the map, filtered to bluebird days: each resort is a Bluepow pin, and the resorts with a bluebird day on Friday are yellow. Engelberg-Titlis is selected: bluebird 64%, powder 2%, snow depth 100 cm, 41 km and 45 minutes by car.

Resorts near you, your way

Not tied to one resort? With Plus, set your start point, driving range and snow depth, then see on a list or a map which resorts are most likely to get powder, a bluebird day, or either, with the distance and directions to each.

Alerts screen in Plus: powder alerts up to 3 days out at 15 cm, and a bluebird call the night before.

A heads-up, up to three days out

Set the snow depth that's worth an early start. When a storm is on its way to your resorts, Bluepow tells you, so you can plan the drive, the day off and the first lift.

Powder is hard to call. Here's how we do.

We'd rather show you real numbers than promise every storm. Testing on past winters, this is how often our powder calls came true.*

1 in 20A random day brings 10 cm or more
9×as often as a random day, for our evening powder calls 3 days out (50% came true)
65%of real powder mornings we flagged on the day, with 56% of those calls coming true

*Testing on five past winters (2021/22 to 2025/26), checked against high-altitude snow stations and Météo-France snow simulations at 784 resorts. In France the check uses Météo-France snow simulations, which are a model, not measurements. Big storms are well forecast, but telling 12 cm from 18 cm is not. Every figure, misses included, is on our scorecard.
