Where does this data come from?
Recent and forecast snowfall at Vitosha is modelled by Open-Meteo from the best available national weather models and ECMWF, at the resort's grid point and downscaled to the upper mountain (2,245 m).
Season-to-date totals are rebuilt daily from the ECMWF IFS archive and compared with the same model's 9 seasons from 2017–18 to 2025–26, so "% of normal" compares like with like.
Models smooth out terrain, so treat the numbers as a guide and cross-check the resort's own report. Never use them for avalanche decisions: read the EAWS (European Avalanche Warning Services).
