Last 30 days · through the morning of Nov 4
On days when Alta wasn't posting snow reports, the numbers come from the Snowbird SNOTEL station, a USDA snow gauge 2 miles away at 9,170 ft, or NOAA's National Snowfall Analysis at the resort, whichever recorded more snow, marked below.
A USDA automated snow gauge, and the station we match to Alta (the nearest one at a similar elevation). It measures snow depth and water at midnight every day of the year; a day's new snow is the rise in depth, counted only when the gauge also caught water (the depth sensor jitters by an inch or so). Settling makes it read a little low in big storms. Station page at NRCS · Alta's station history
