LUXSKI Snow Team
Featured ResortLes Trois Vallées, France

Welcome to today's global snow overview for Friday, February 13, 2026. Europe continues to dominate with excellent conditions, particularly in Les Trois Vallées and Val d'Isère, showcasing impressive snow bases. Over in North America, Jackson Hole and Whistler Blackcomb are holding their own with substantial snow cover. Meanwhile, Asia's Niseko resorts are receiving fresh snowfall, promising delightful powder for skiers. Whether you're planning a trip to the Alps, the Rockies, or the Japanese slopes, today's report will guide you to the best snow worldwide.

Europe leads the pack today with Les Trois Vallées boasting a SnowSure Score of 56/100 and a robust snow base of 177cm. This region, along with Val d'Isère, is experiencing some of the best snow conditions globally. In North America, Jackson Hole offers a strong base of 169cm, making it a contender for top skiing experiences. However, the SnowSure Scores are slightly lower than their European counterparts. Asia’s Niseko resorts are catching up with fresh overnight snow adding to their appeal, particularly Niseko Moiwa with 8cm of new powder. Overall, Europe stands out with consistent snowfall and excellent skiing conditions.

Overnight, Niseko Moiwa in Japan and several French resorts, including Megève and La Clusaz, received 8cm of fresh snow, enhancing their slopes for an ideal skiing experience. Crans-Montana in Switzerland also added 5cm, while Chamrousse in France saw 4cm. These fresh layers promise excellent powder days ahead, particularly for those in Asia and Europe.

Looking ahead, Europe is set to receive significant snowfall, especially in the French Alps, with Les Trois Vallées expecting up to 119cm over the next two weeks. North America's forecast is slightly drier, but the Rockies may see some action next week. In Asia, Japan's Niseko resorts will continue to experience light snowfalls, maintaining excellent skiing conditions. Keep an eye on the French Alps for the next big snow event.
