Finse Skisenter is a ski area in Norway, at about 1,350 m. Its mapped area is about 0.9 km across.
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 468 cm of snowfall a season, 99th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 16th in Norway. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2019/20 (761 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2025/26 (293 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (137 and 130 cm on average).

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 December. March brings 75% of January’s snowfall. That is in line with the median for ski areas in Norway (75%). In amount, March brings 98 cm, more than the median of 47 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 468 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2025/26 with 293 cm; the biggest was 2019/20 with 761 cm (2.6 times as much). For 34% of the 135 ski areas in Norway, the leanest winter was the same 2025/26: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
