- How will El Niño affect Stowe in winter 2026-27?
- El Niño Signal Rank: #292 of 488 SnowSure resorts · Tier D · strong-event signal -6% vs its own 30-yr average. In the three strongest El Niño winters on record ('97-98, '15-16, '23-24), Stowe averaged -6% versus its own 30-year snowfall baseline. Not a warning — a scheduling note. El Niño winters here tend to start slower and reward the late-winter core, when the base peaks and the El Niño headlines have pushed the crowds elsewhere. Aim February–March for winter 2026-27. Analog winters: '97-98 +3%, '15-16 -44%, '23-24 +23%.
