Khor Ski Resort
Khor Ski Resort is a ski area in Iran, at about 2,632 m. Its mapped area is about 1.7 km across, with 1 marked run and 1 lift (about 1.7 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 249 cm of snowfall a season, 743rd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 4th in Iran. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2021/22 (423 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (144 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 80 cm.
Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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.
How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,069 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in March. March brings as much as January, or more. In amount, March brings 80 cm, more than the median of 52 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 249 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 144 cm; the biggest was 2021/22 with 423 cm (2.9 times as much). For 45% of the 22 ski areas in Iran, the leanest winter was the same 2014/15: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
