How to Interpret the Snow Forecast
🌡️ 0°C isotherm: Indicates the altitude at which the temperature is 0 degrees. Below it, it snows; above it, it may rain. In Baqueira, with elevations between 1500-2610m, it is key to knowing whether there will be snow or rain.
❄️ Snow accumulation: Measured in cm. Snowfall of +10cm is considered good, while +20cm is excellent for powder snow.
💨 Wind: Speeds above 60 km/h can cause lift closures in exposed areas.
☁️ Cloud cover: Affects visibility. Clear days are ideal for higher elevations, while cloudy days are better for wooded areas.
