What Is “Orographic” Precipitation At Tremblant?


Within the T360 “Mountain Conditions” ski
reporting you will find frequent references to
“Orographic Precipitation" as either an explanation
for, or as a part of the description of, the components
of the conditions du jour.


The reason this is important is because it is
a reliable cause of snowfall over Tremblant
Mountain elevations that can substantially
exceed ground level forecast or actual
accumulation amounts.
