Alpe Cimbra is a ski area in Italy, on slopes between roughly 1,159 and 1,159 m. Its mapped area is about 17 km across.
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 119 cm of snowfall a season, 2,097th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 142nd in Italy. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2020/21 (263 cm), brought more than 5 times as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (50 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (31 and 26 cm on average).

Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.
Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.
We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in February. March brings 96% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Italy (116%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 25 cm, less than the median of 48 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 119 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2016/17 with 50 cm; the biggest was 2020/21 with 263 cm (5.3 times as much). For 31% of the 177 ski areas in Italy, the leanest winter was the same 2016/17: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
