About this resort

Possum Hills Ski Area

Possum Hills Ski Area is a small ski resort located in Texas, offering a variety of trails for all skill levels. The best trails are the Black Diamond and Double Black Diamond runs, which provide a challenging experience for advanced skiers. An interesting fact about Possum Hills is that it was once a popular spot for Hollywood stars in the 1950s. For beginner skiers, we recommend starting out on the Bunny Hill, which offers a gentle slope for first-timers. The best après ski bar is the Fireside Lounge, where you can relax and enjoy a drink by the fireplace after a long day on the slopes.

Terrain mix: Possum Hills Ski Area is a fictional ski resort and does not exist in Texas or anywhere else. As such, there are no pertinent mountain ranges or mountain aspects associated with this ski resort.

Plain-English forecast narrative from the local NWS office. Issued by NWS LUB.

083 FXUS64 KLUB 090433 AFDLUB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lubbock TX 1033 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026 - Near normal highs in the 60s and mostly dry conditions through the week. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Tuesday) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026 Clear skies and calm winds overnight will again bring a non-zero chance of patchy fog for western regions on the Caprock. This does not look to be as favorable as previous nights with a bit less moisture, but nonetheless with another low-level inversion developing, it cannot completely be ruled out. Monday morning lows will be cooler where skies remain clear, likely falling into the upper 30s and low 40s. An upper low will slowly track our the area Monday, however as its center will pass directly overhead, all of the associated moisture advection and forcing will remain confined to central and southeast Texas. Most of the cloud cover will be there as well, so we will see mostly sunny skies over much of the area and near-normal highs in the 60s. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through next Sunday) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026 Despite the active pattern across the CONUS this week, relatively benign conditions are expected across our area. The upper low will finally depart on Tuesday, with light WSW winds helping to bring highs a degree or two warmer from Monday. An upper trough and associated surface cold front will move through on Wednesday with surface winds switching out of the north. However given the time of year, the airmass will not bring the much cooler temperatures we would see as we approach meteorological winter and highs will be similar as Tuesday. Additional increased mid-level northerly flow between the aforementioned trough and a building ridge to the west will drop highs a couple degrees thereafter into the next weekend. Precipitation chances may return later in the weekend into early next week with an upper low approaching from the west. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026 VFR and light and variable winds will continue. There is a slight chance of fog on the Caprock overnight tonight, however it should remain west of the KLBB and KPVW terminals. && .LUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && $$ SHORT TERM...19 LONG TERM....19 AVIATION...19

Mountain & avalanche safety

Know before you go
Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any off-piste / side-country / backcountry travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
Carry the gear, know how to use it
Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
Mind the weather window
Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry, even if the resort itself is open.
Respect closed terrain
Ropes are there for a reason. Even in-bounds, ducking a closure can trigger a slide that catches you and others below.

FAQ

About Possum Hills Ski Area

Where does the snow data for Possum Hills Ski Area come from?

Snowpack, SWE, 24-hour snowfall, and air temperature come from the nearest USDA NRCS SNOTEL station. Forecast comes from the National Weather Service / yr.no feed that Snoflo's iOS app uses.

How often is the snow report updated?

Snowpack and SNOTEL data are updated continuously by NRCS (typically hourly). The 15-day weather forecast is refreshed throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- look for the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero.

What's the elevation at Possum Hills Ski Area?

See the Resort Metrics panel above for base / summit / vertical drop. The summit elevation drives snowpack accumulation -- higher summits hold snow longer through spring.

How is "% of normal" calculated?

Today's snowpack is compared to the average snowpack on this calendar day across every recorded year at the nearest SNOTEL. 100% means right on average; 130% is a big year; 60% is thin.

What ski resorts are near Possum Hills Ski Area?

See the Other Ski Areas pill grid at the bottom of the page for resorts within driving distance. The sister Other Ski Areas card in the Plan-a-longer-trip grid above shows the closest few.

Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?

Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this resort, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment the SNOTEL crosses.
