Abstract: We present both snow depth and precipitation driven simulations of the snow cover at Weissfluhjoch, 2540 m a.s.l., near Davos, Switzerland. We performed simulations with the latest release of SNOWPACK. A confirmation of the robustness of the simulations is the high agreement between modeled and measured depth of snowfall HN(24) over 24 hours.
