Each colour starts at the value shown. Wind colours match across all three units. Dry cells stay neutral. Colours describe the displayed values, not official weather warnings.
Preparing forecast graphs…
Times and values match the detailed forecast. Tap or point at a value for details. Scroll each chart sideways for later days. Rain / precipitation is the total water equivalent per forecast interval, including snow; snowfall is fresh snow per interval, not snow depth.
GFS and ECMWF model comparison. Each model retains its own forecast times and horizon. Precipitation and snowfall amounts cover their own forecast intervals; these can differ between models.

Forecast notes
Forecast table times: UTC.
Coordinates: 46.10608915°N, 7.92800903°E · Requested elevation: 1789 m. Model terrain: 2279 m. Terrain and 1000/925/850/700 hPa profiles are used for height estimates.
Outside the available profile, temperature uses an estimated 5.5°C/km height correction; wind retains the nearest available model-level value. Humidity is estimated with adjusted pressure and temperature.
These are altitude estimates, not a simulation of local mountain terrain. Precipitation, cloud and sea-level pressure use horizontal interpolation only.
Precipitation includes rain and snow water equivalent: preceding 3 hours through day 6, then 6 hours (see cell tooltip). Snow (cm) estimates fresh snowfall from precipitation and temperature using the GFS conversion; it is not snow depth on the ground. Freezing (m) uses additional 600/500 hPa temperatures when available and estimates the lowest resolved 0°C crossing above sea level. When all sampled levels are warm, the upper profile limit is shown (see tooltip). < marks an entirely cold sampled profile and its lower height limit. No extrapolation is used.
Saas-Fee combines a car-free resort centre with glacier skiing that reaches 3,600 m. It belongs to the wider Saas Valley destination, which also includes Saas-Grund and Saas-Almagell. Figures advertised for the whole valley should not automatically be attributed to Saas-Fee alone; the separate areas have their own operating information.
The selected forecast point here is at 1,789 m, far below the highest skiing. That difference is central to interpreting this page. A mild afternoon around the resort does not describe the glacier temperature, and a snowfall forecast at the top does not establish how much will settle at the lower point. Use the elevation selection to make the comparison relevant to your plans.
For early-season skiing, read the actual list of open lifts and pistes. The presence of a glacier is not a promise that the entire winter area is available. During a visit, compare the timing of cloud, wind and snow at altitude rather than judging the day from the resort-centre temperature alone. Winter walking and sightseeing also require their own route and facility checks.
