Snowpack — Bansko (model)Experimental
Snowpack calculated with the SNOWPACK model for the Bansko area, Pirin. Updated every night.
This is computer model output, not the avalanche bulletin. It has not been checked by a forecaster. For the avalanche danger see the bulletin.
Calculated on 06.10.2026 17:07, with data up to 06.10.2026. The season is calculated from 01.10.2026.
For now the model runs on weather data only. Measurements from the study plot will be added once they start. Each place is calculated with the Open-Meteo weather for its grid square and its own height, aspect and angle (from a terrain model). There are no weather stations nearby, so the values are approximate.
