A clearer indication of where snow instability may affect route choice.
Wind and fresh snow combined into a practical signal for exposed ground.
The level where precipitation and wet ground are likely to freeze.
Fresh accumulation, rain-on-snow and freeze–thaw change through the day.
How summit wind and temperature may feel on exposed winter terrain.
We’re developing a specialist forecast to help climbers and hillwalkers judge snow, ice and wind before committing to a route.
The aim is to bring the most useful winter signals together, explain how they are changing and keep route decisions grounded in conditions on the hill.
Safety first. Forecasts support, never replace, local avalanche reports, observations and winter judgement.
