Shames Mountain

Skiing at Shames Mountain is framed by the Coast Mountains and organized around the contours of the hill. Frequent snowfall is an important part of the mountain’s winter identity.

Daily forecast snowfall in inches. Amounts on the bars show daily snowfall. Percentages at right appear only on days with snow and show the chance of rain or snow, not a snow-only probability. -- indicates no snow; — indicates unavailable data.

How to read temperatures

Ranges show each day’s low and high, not a statistical distribution. Typical daily temperature is the median of 14 available daily averages. Missing readings leave gaps.

Hover, tap, or focus a day to compare pressure changes, precipitation, and snowfall.

How to read pressure & storm activity

Compare falling pressure with snowfall or precipitation to spot possible storm patterns. A pressure drop alone does not guarantee a storm. Each day pairs a light blue snowfall bar with a purple liquid precipitation bar (rain and melted snow). Both use the inches axis; snowfall depth and liquid precipitation are different measurements and are not added together. Snowfall and precipitation are separate source fields; snow can be reported even when precipitation is zero. Each metric uses its own labeled axis. Missing pressure readings leave gaps; — marks an unavailable bar value.

Hover, tap, or focus a day to compare temperature, dew point, and their gap.

How to read dew point depression

Dew point depression (DPD) = temperature − dew point. A shrinking gap means air is closer to saturation; it can reflect added moisture, cooling, or both.

These are daily values, not hourly observations. A small gap alone does not predict snow or prove the whole atmosphere is moist. Compare with pressure, precipitation, and the snowfall forecast. Missing or inconsistent DPD readings are left blank.

Illustrative comparisons at 30°F; descriptions are a guide, not fixed weather thresholds.

Illustrative approaching-storm sequence: 25°F / dew point 5°F → DPD 20°F; 24°F / 15°F → 9°F; 23°F / 20°F → 3°F; 22°F / 21°F → 1°F. Rising dew point alongside cooling temperature shows air becoming much closer to saturation. This example is not the resort’s live forecast.
