Europe Snow Forecast European Alps Snow Forecast: 30-55 cm

"The current storm is already underway across much of the western and central Alps and continues overnight into Tuesday. The individual models are converging on the main timing, with the steadiest snow through Tuesday morning before showers fade Tuesday afternoon and evening. Snow levels during the continuing wave generally run near 900-2,100 meters, lowest toward the northern and eastern Alps and higher at times in the French and Swiss high terrain. Snow quality is mixed: SLRs mostly run 8-13:1, so expect dense to moderate snow, with the wettest lower-elevation snow near Kitzbühel, St. Anton, and parts of the Dolomites."

"WeatherThis European Alps snow forecast stays active through Saturday, with the best upper-mountain totals stacking up from an ongoing storm tonight into Tuesday and a broader reload Thursday through Saturday. Confidence is strongest from Monday night, May 11, through Saturday night, May 16, when the individual models are reasonably aligned on the two main waves. Favored northern and western high terrain should see roughly 30-55 cm by late Saturday, while lower and more eastern areas see less, denser snow with more mixed snow quality."

"Wednesday is the brief break, then the next storm reloads from Thursday into Saturday. The individual models are converging on another multi-day unsettled period, but they diverge on which side of the Alps gets the heaviest core and how long Saturday snow lingers. Snow levels look lower and steadier than the current storm, mostly around 1,200-1,800 meters while snow is falling. SLRs are generally 10-14:1 in the higher French, Swiss, and central Alpine terrain for moderate to fairly light snow, but closer to 4-9:1 in lower Austrian terrain and parts of the Dolomites, where snow will be denser and more elevation-dependent."

"Snow levels during the continuing wave generally run near 900-2,100 meters, lowest toward the northern and eastern Alps and higher at times in the French and Swiss high terrain. Snow quality is mixed: SLRs mostly run 8-13:1, so expect dense to moderate snow, with the wettest lower-elevation snow near Kitzbühel, St. Anton, and parts of the Dolomites. Winds are gusty on exposed terrain, especially early Tuesday, but the snowfall remains the main ski-weather feature."

A storm is already affecting much of the western and central Alps and continues overnight into Tuesday. Steadiest snowfall runs through Tuesday morning, then fades Tuesday afternoon and evening. Snow levels during this wave generally range from about 900 to 2,100 meters, lowest toward the northern and eastern Alps and higher at times in French and Swiss high terrain. Snow quality is mixed, with mostly 8–13:1 snow-to-liquid ratios producing dense to moderate snow, and wetter lower-elevation snow near Kitzbühel, St. Anton, and parts of the Dolomites. Winds gust on exposed terrain, while a brief break occurs Wednesday before another unsettled period reloads Thursday through Saturday. Totals favor northern and western high terrain around 30–55 cm by late Saturday, with lower and more eastern areas receiving less and denser, more mixed snow. Snow levels during the next storm are mostly 1,200–1,800 meters while snow falls, with varying ratios from 10–14:1 in higher French, Swiss, and central Alpine terrain to 4–9:1 in lower Austrian terrain and parts of the Dolomites.
