Northeast first · Worldwide soon

Hunt the deepest snow.

We built our own forecast model. It calls snow, rain, temperature and wind at the base, mid-mountain and summit of your mountain separately, then tells you where and when to go.

Powhunt home: the biggest storm, where we'd ski this weekend, and every mountain ranked by snow
Snowfall timeline and odds of a big storm
Stowe forecast: 18 inches at mid-mountain, 21 at the summit, powder score 90

Every elevation

Rain at the base. A foot up top.

A mountain isn’t one place, so one number for “the resort” is often wrong. Powhunt forecasts the base, mid-mountain and summit separately, and works out snow versus rain, and how light it’ll be, at each one.

  • Where the rain turns to snow, called out in plain English.
  • Icy mornings, freezing rain and wind holds flagged before they wreck your day.

Storm map

Watch the storm roll in, hour by hour.

Drag through five days and watch snow, rain and mix move across the Northeast and Quebec, drawn by our model over the real terrain. Slide back to see what already fell. A floating list re-sorts every mountain as you go, with yours on top.

  • Coming or already fell. Three days back, five ahead, on one timeline.
  • Snow totals for every mountain on the map, for the base, mid-mountain or summit.
  • Where we’d go this weekend, with a backup, right on the home screen.
Storm map slid back a day and a half: snow falling on the northern Green Mountains, the White Mountains, the Adirondacks and southern Quebec over shaded terrain, bare valleys and south, with mountains ranked by snow that has fallen since

Season tracker · coming soon

How’s the season really going?

Every mountain, every day, against what’s normal for the date. See how the fall has run, where the next week is headed, and what it means for the snow under your skis.

  • Warmer or colder than normal, day by day, for the base, mid-mountain and summit.
  • Cold that keeps snow, warmth that melts it: the average day since Oct 1 and for the week ahead, against normal.
  • Storms on the same timeline: snow that fell, snow on the way, and rain.
  • Every mountain at a glance: who’s running cold, who’s running warm, and where the week is headed.
Killington summit, season so far: daytime highs since Oct 3 against normal, the forecast running well above it, and the average day since Oct 1 at 40°, about normal, with the next five days 15° warmer than usual
All mountains, warmer or colder than normal: a bar for every day since Oct 3, orange when warmer and blue when colder, with every mountain forecast 8 to 14 degrees warmer than normal this week
Stowe's written forecast: tonight a good dump, 9 to 10 inches on the summit and 7 to 8 at the base, mainly after midnight
Lock screen with a Powhunt powder alert for Stowe and Powhunt widgets showing 18 inches in the next 24 hours
Storm card on the lock screen: Killington, storm inbound, 14 inches likely over the next two days, 17 at the summit, 14 mid-mountain, 9 at the base, starts in 5 hours

The storm card: on your lock screen when a storm is inbound, updated as it falls, gone when it’s over.

Written for skiers and riders

A forecast that reads like a friend wrote it.

Every mountain gets a plain-English forecast, day and night, for the base and the summit. And when your mountain is about to get real snow, your phone tells you.

  • Powder alerts for the mountains you star, only when it’s worth it. Tap one and you land right on that mountain.
  • Home and lock screen widgets with the next 24 hours at your mountain, updated through the day.
  • Storm cards on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island while a storm is inbound or falling: summit, mid and base totals, live until it’s over.

Ride with your crew

One call for the whole crew.

No more group chat arguing over where to go. Share the weekend pick with your friends and everyone gets the same call, the same backup and the same heads-up the moment the snow shifts.

Start a crew in one tap

Hit share under the weekend pick and send the link. Your friends are in seconds later. No accounts, no sign-ups.

In, maybe or out

Everyone sees the pick, the backup and who's coming. Lock in the carpool before the lift line forms.

One alert when the call changes

Storm jumps north? The whole crew hears about it at once, so nobody drives to the wrong mountain.

Our own model

Built by skiers who got tired of driving to rain.

Our model calls every storm for the base, the mid-mountain and the summit of your mountain, so you know where the deep stuff is and you’re on the first chair when it lands. Then we check every call against what actually fell.

Beats the major models on snow

Head to head with the best forecast models in the world, Powhunt calls the next day's snow closer. Two winters running.

Closer on temperature

Cold smoke or mashed potatoes? Know before you leave the driveway. The most accurate next-day temperatures.

3forecasts per mountain

Base, mid and summit

The parking lot and the summit get two different storms. Powhunt calls both, so you know where the best snow is before you gear up.

Built for chasing storms

Everything you check before 6 a.m., in one place.

No more flipping between five weather sites and a resort report at dawn.

Powder score

One simple score for every mountain that weighs how much is falling, how good it’ll be, how sure we are, and whether the lifts will spin.

Odds, not guesses

See the real odds of 6, 12 or 18 inches in the days ahead, and how confident the forecast is, instead of one number you can’t trust.

Timed to the storm

See when the heaviest snow arrives, with temperature and wind, so you know whether to call in sick on Thursday or Friday.

Graded every day

Every morning our model is checked against what actually happened: weather stations on and near the mountains, snow observers and the resorts’ own reports.

Starting in the Northeast

Northeast first. Then the world.

We’re launching in Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, the Adirondacks and Quebec, then rolling out to ski areas worldwide. Pick your home mountain when you join: it helps decide where we go next.
