Exceptional signals only
Where is the current setup strong, unusual, or fragile?
Alpine Watch is deliberately selective. It publishes only opportunities, anomalies and caution signals that clear their evidence thresholds; routine conditions belong in the Briefing, regional pages and resort reports.
What changed
More resorts improved than weakened in the latest accepted cycle.
Only persisted P209 material changes are shown here; small forecast noise remains suppressed.

Alpine Anomalies
Signals outside the seasonal pattern
Current snow is compared with the available weekly climatology, while forecast and wind extremes provide additional anomaly context. Positive and negative anomalies are kept distinct.

Resorts worth reconsidering under the current setup
Only sufficiently supported caution signals are published. Missing weather or snow evidence remains unknown and never counts as a negative signal.

MethodHow Alpine Watch separates the signalsOpportunity, anomaly and caution answer different questions.
Opportunity asks where evidence is supportive now. Anomaly asks what differs from the seasonal pattern. Caution asks where several current signals warrant a second look. Resort Personality supplies structural context but does not decide the live score.
Evidence-awareConfidence rises only when independent current sources are available.
Climatology-awareCurrent mountain snow can be compared with the matching weekly normal.
