Snowfall: no long enough record of fresh snow at this station. Rather than an estimate, we show nothing.

Total snow depth on the ground measured at 06:00 at the Météo-France “COL DE PORTE-NIVOSE” station (1325 m, 0 km away), from the open “Daily climatological data” dataset (Open Licence 2.0). The season is counted from 1 December to 15 April; only winters with at least 95 % of those 136 days measured are kept, so no figure here rests on a handful of readings. The reading is taken at 1325 m. In season, the resort’s daily report prevails.

☀️ Average daily sunshine : Nov 5.8 h · Dec 5.4 h · Jan 5.5 h · Feb 7 h · Mar 8.3 h · Apr 9.7 h — 25 bright days in April (Open-Meteo estimate, 2015-2025).

Why altitude matters. Col de Porte stretches to 1,701 m: snow lies longest at the top of the ski area, which is why the two depths are reported separately.
