Joel Gratz

Joel Gratz likes three things: weather, snow and skiing. Gratz holds a meteorology degree from Penn State, a master’s degree in environmental studies and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Colorado Boulder. Following years of missing powder days in Colorado, he studied mountain weather patterns and started sharing forecasts in 2007 via an email list called Colorado Powder Forecast. In 2017, Gratz and his fellow forecasters reached over 2 million skiers and riders through the OpenSnow website and mobile apps.
