This weather station is located between the Panorama and Prairie T-Bar bullwheels. The data, we use temperature and wind, is uploaded hourly, on the hour via satellite. It is normally available for viewing shortly after upload, but maybe delayed longer.
Monday Feb 16, 2026 - 1:00 pm
This weather station is located at the top of Turkey Shoot. Telus® has supplied the means to communicate with the internet and the site is maintained by ERM. This site hosts the data.
The camera tends to snow or ice over. It has a heater for lens clearing. The effect is much like a vehicle windshield left out overnight in the winter.
Feb 16, 2026 - 12:54 pm
The Resort is managing their own snow table. It will be cleaned at 4:00 pm every operational day. It will be left to accumulate on non operational days.

After Extremely Cold Weather:
Will effect the melting process and result in delays in snowfall recording. It needs to catch up.
Snowfall During a Snowfall Event:
Lags behind in determining rainfall equivalent. Therefore, calculated snowfall maybe less than the snow table indicates.
Snowfall After a Snowfall Event:
Does not account for the processes of compaction and melting once the snow is on the ground. Therefore, calculated snowfall will generally be more than the snow table indicates.
Temperature sensors are located at the base area of these two lifts. Updated every 15 minutes.
Weatherapi.com (wapi) is a hourly service for current conditions. An alternative service is Openweathermap.org (owm). Both these services have an issue with reporting accurate Smithers Airport temperatures. So, supplemented every quarter hour for temperature and wind from the Government of Canada (ec).
Outcome: To proactively monitor, anticipate, manage and respond to winter accumulations and compact to facilitate the safe and orderly flow of traffic.
Measure: Remove winter accumulations, one lane each direction when over 6 cm
Outcome: To proactively monitor, anticipate, manage and minimize the development of Slippery conditions and restore traction.
Measure: Restore traction on Travelled Lanes immediately, when Slippery conditions occur outside of a Weather Event. Restore traction on Travelled Lanes with Slippery conditions, once the Weather Event commences 90 minutes:
