The Postholer Snow Page is now being updated daily for the current snow
season:

What It Is
Provides general snow conditions along the PCT to assist you in your
pre-hike planning; especially for those thru-hikers anxiously waiting to
choose a start date. On this page you'll find tabular and graphical data for
each snow sensor as well a link to a topo map and a NOAA weather report for
that location. Also, the page has historical data back to 1970; that doesn't
mean all the sensors existed though! You can also compare any 2 dates and
see how this year is compared to another. And of course, the Sierra Entry
Indicator for your entertainment.
What It Isn't
It is not designed to give you snow information around the next bend or over
the next hill. It is not a human report. The data is collected via automatic
sensors. Sensors are 30 miles or more apart, with exceptions.
