Skimetric

Find European ski resorts by name and/or ISO-2 country code. Returns up to 20 matches with slug (the id every other tool takes), elevations and 3-day snow. Refine the query rather than paging — there is no bulk catalogue access.

Rank resorts by live conditions. Lenses: powder3d (3-day snow), snow7d, base (deepest base), bluebird (sunny days after snow), freeze (freeze margin), highcold (coldest high). Optional country ISO-2, min_summit metres, glacier-only, min_lifts. Top 20 max.

Full 10-day forecast for one resort (slug from find_resorts), per elevation band (base/mid/summit/glacier): daily snow cm with ensemble p25-p75, temps, freezing level, 48h hourly detail, storm context.

Live mountain truth for one resort: lifts/pistes open counts from the operator (dated, fail-closed — absent means no source reported, never a guess), skier thumb reports, and the country's avalanche bulletin.

Ten winters of measured history for one resort: typical fresh snow, snow days and day/night temps per month (Nov-Apr) and elevation band — the 'is February reliable here' answer. month: 1-12 optional filter.

Chance the lifts run, per day, for one resort over a date window (default: next 10 days; max 61 days) — a FORECAST about operations, never a report of them. For what is verified open right now use `conditions`. Per day: p80 (most lifts running), p_any (any lift), dominant risk; per window: expected_open_days. Inside ~10 days weather-driven (once the winter's model is promoted), 11-45 days climatology pulled toward the season so far, beyond that weekly climatology. Phrase it to the human as likelihood ("likely", "a 70% chance"), never as fact. start/end: YYYY-MM-DD.
