Uvdal alpinsenter (Senteret)
Uvdal alpinsenter (Senteret) is a ski area in Norway, at about 889 m. Its mapped area is about 2.0 km across, with 23 marked runs and 7 lifts (about 18 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 151 cm of snowfall a season, 1,652nd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 97th in Norway. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2019/20 (196 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (94 cm). March still brings 36 cm on average, close to January, its snowiest month.

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.

Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.

Which way the slopes face
67% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

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 January. March brings 84% of January’s snowfall. That is a gentler fall than the median for ski areas in Norway (75%). For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 36 cm, less than the median of 47 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 151 cm, and 4 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2016/17 with 94 cm; the biggest was 2019/20 with 196 cm (2.1 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.
