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.

042 FXUS64 KLUB 260509 AFDLUB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lubbock TX 1209 AM CDT Sun Jul 26 2026 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1208 AM CDT Sun Jul 26 2026 - Hot and dry conditions will persist through next week. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Monday) Issued at 1044 PM CDT Sat Jul 25 2026 Broad high pressure will continue to dominate the region through Sunday. Overnight lows remain mild in the 70s. A subtle southward shift in the ridge on Sunday will allow for high temperatures to rise a degree or two from Saturday, however conditions will be essentially the same overall. Highs are expected at or near 100 on the Caprock, while reaching the low 100s off the Caprock. However most areas should remain below Heat Advisory criteria, with quiet weather continuing into the overnight. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through next Saturday) Issued at 1044 PM CDT Sat Jul 25 2026 The rather mundane forecast will persist Monday through the end of the week. The large upper high pressure dominating the region will slowly shift westward but remain the significant influence over the region, bringing essentially no change to the hot and dry conditions we have seen as of late. Highs Monday will again increase a degree or two and remain steady thereafter. Highs on the Caprock are expected in the low 100s, while highs around 105 off the Caprock may prompt several days worth of Heat Advisories. The next chance of any precipitation will not occur until late Friday or Saturday as the ridge will have move far enough west such that the "ridge rider" storms may be able to work their way into west Texas on its periphery. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1208 AM CDT Sun Jul 26 2026 Prevailing VFR through the next 24 hours with south winds near or below 15 kt. && .LUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Heat Advisory from 1 PM this afternoon to 9 PM CDT this evening for TXZ025-026-031-032. && $$ SHORT TERM...19 LONG TERM....19 AVIATION...30

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.
