Forecast for April 11-20, 2026
It’s always snowing somewhere, and for skiers and riders, that’s where the magic happens. Fresh snow is what turns ordinary runs into powder days, and every skier knows the thrill of waking up to see a few extra inches (or feet) on the mountain report.
Whether you’re chasing the deepest conditions or just living vicariously through other people’s powder days, it’s worth knowing where the flakes are stacking up. These are the resorts that will receive the most snow over the next week and beyond.
California dominates the list this week with a storm starting this weekend. If you plan to visit any resorts, make sure they are open, as many have closed early for the season.
The forecast comes from OpenSnow’s Top Forecasts for the next 10 days for every ski resort in North America. The cumulative snowfall numbers were taken at 8:30 a.m. PT on April 11, 2026. Remember that forecasts can always change, especially in the long term.
