Leirskallen skisenter

Off season Official site

Leirskallen skisenter is a ski area in Norway, at about 129 m. Its mapped area is about 0.3 km across, with 2 marked runs and 1 lift (about 0.5 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 93 cm of snowfall a season, 2,449th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 134th in Norway. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (138 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (38 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 36 cm.

Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.

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.

Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 93 cm, and 5 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2016/17 with 38 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 138 cm (3.6 times as much). For 27% of the 135 ski areas in Norway, the leanest winter was the same 2016/17: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
