Snowpack and melt outlook near Bozeman, Montana
See nearby measured snow depth and snow-water equivalent first, then what changed and whether the next 48 hours favor melt, refreeze, retention or new snow.
Measured station data is shown with distance. Stations farther than 60 miles are regional context only and do not drive a local pack-phase conclusion.
Optional device location is rounded before lookup and is not included in analytics.
Nearby snowpack observations
Station observations are not exact conditions at the searched point.
48-hour freeze, thaw, rain and snow pattern
NOAA/NOHRSC: national measured context
NOHRSC publishes national station reports for snow depth and snow-water equivalent with coordinates. These observations are explicitly unofficial and provisional, so the tool shows station distance and never treats them as exact local truth.
NRCS SNOTEL: deeper mountain-station truth
Where SNOTEL exists, AWDB adds snow depth and SWE history from a dedicated snow-monitoring station. SNOTEL is valuable but regionally concentrated, so lack of SNOTEL is not interpreted as lack of snow.
NWS: what the atmosphere does next
The local NWS hourly forecast supplies the next 48 hours of temperature and precipitation wording. The tool counts above-freezing, freezing, rain-signal and snow-signal hours without inventing precipitation totals.
What this does not know
Trail grooming, avalanche danger, road closures, drifting, shade, aspect and elevation differences can dominate a real outing. Verify those locally before travel.
